Verdict

Forever Dream looks to have the best form of those on display here having finished second at Kempton behind Back To Ben Alder. He is considered to be Nicky Henderson's best National Hunt Flat horse and is expected to line up in the bumper event at Cheltenham this week. Though beaten a long way that day he is expected to improve and will be hard to beat. His biggest danger could be his stablemate Everready who shaped with promise on his debut at Folkestone behind Eric's Charm and has scope for improvement. Of those who have run Calcot Flyer may be in the shake up after running well for a long way before tiring close home in his debut at Haydock. Of the unraced horses Star Angler appeals on breeding being by Supreme Leader out of a Deep Run mare.
