Forecasts

Go West (8/13), Josh The Boss (11/10), Jipcot (11/4), Deep Purple (9/2), Silver Thorn (7/1)

GO WEST didn't cover himself in glory in a listed Perth novice hurdle on his final run of last season, but he looked promising prior to that and it's likely that he will quickly surpass what he achieved over hurdles now switched to the larger obstacles. Though Deep Purple seemingly has plenty on his plate on these terms, he arrives here on the back of a solid effort at Chepstow and is preferred to chasing debutants Josh The Boss and Silver Thorn as the main danger.
