Bounced back from a below par effort at Kempton to score with plenty in hand at Market Rasen last time, the step up in trip seemingly doing the trick. Faces a simple enough task here, even with the penalty, and the one to beat.
Thrashed out of sight on both hurdles starts to date, showing little in the process, and can't be looked at as the likely winner here.
Point-to-point winner that's shown a bit of ability in a couple of bumpers but not enough to make him of interest here, even with the addition of the tongue tie.
Beat the useful Another Stowaway on bumper debut, has tended to jump left on all hurdles starts so far but his second at Ludlow last time a better effort, and that makes him the main danger to Burrows Edge if repeating it.
This step up in trip will suit after a couple of efforts not without promise at Taunton, but looks one that needs a bit of time and will improve with experience.
Well beaten off in three bumper starts and hard to fancy on those efforts. Others readily preferred. .
Forecasts
Shivermetimbers (4/9), Mr Washington (4/1), Burrows Edge (5/1), Sizing Tara (6/1), Cuban Pete (16/1), The Toojumpa (66/1)
This looks at the mercy of BURROWS EDGE, whose form so far entitles him to win this with a bit in hand. Shivermetimbers looks the main danger on paper, but with the yard struggling a bit this season, it wouldn't be the biggest shock if Sizing Tara improved past him today. He might be the one for the forecast.
- Burrows Edge
- Sizing Tara
- Shivermetimbers
