Forecasts

Vibrato Valtat (10/3), Marracudja (10/3), Icing On The Cake (7/2), Some Buckle (5/1), Dusky Lark (6/1), Dream Bolt (8/1)

MARRACUDJA landed the Scottish Champion Chase at Musselburgh in February, a third win in 11 starts over fences for Paul Nicholls' charge. The front runner has scope for doing better and, if his stamina holds, he'll be hard to reel in under his excellent claiming rider now. Vibrato Valtat would have excellent claims if anywhere close to his best while Some Buckle has claims on form but must prove his fitness.
