Forecast Prices: Cooltobecareless 7/4, Planters Punch 5/2, Bells Grove 8/1, Spanish Darling 16/1, Eternal Angel 16/1, Sixpack 20/1, Matiwo 10/1, Governors Rock 25/1, Kingofthefrontier 33/1, Scotts Legacy 13/2
Having won all three previous starts in a comfortable manner, PLANTERS PUNCH is a progressive hurdler with stacks of potential. This is by far his stiffest test so far and Scott's Legacy, Cooltobecareless - whose yard has won the last two renewals - and the hat-trick seeking Bells Grove can all make it a good test. Each warrants close inspection in the betting, with the first-named, a ready winner at Newton Abbot, suggested as the biggest danger with his yard in excellent form.
Prediction: 1st Planters Punch, 2nd Scotts Legacy, 3rd Cooltobecareless
