In depth
Verdict
Chicago Bulls looked a most progressive sort last term and with his favoured soft ground at Uttoxeter, he looks very difficult to oppose and he is duly given the TEAMtalk nod. The Flyer put up a dour performance to win at Hereford but Sue Wilton's charge is unproven over the trip and is probably best watched today. Old Feathers best form looks to be on faster ground whilst Wontcostalotbut should enjoy the trip but is better known as a chaser these days. Ballynattin Blue would have to be in with a shout if he has stripped fitter for his first run of the season.
