Forecasts

Weseekherthere (11/4), Ayiko (10/3), Cailin Aibrean (11/2), Crooked Tannie (13/2), Bigira (15/2), Charlie's Dilemma (15/2), Ally Kazoo (8/1), Hopkins (18/1), Mount Frisco (20/1), Grattan Street (20/1), Cramers Valley (40/1)

Gordon Elliott's WESEEKHERTHERE has shown a fair level of ability in a bumper/2 hurdles and is the percentage call, although a strong market move for newcomers such as Ayiko, Charlie's Dilemma and/or Ally Kazoo would put a slightly different slant on things.
