Broke his maiden on debut for this yard in a 2m6f maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter (good). Failed to follow-up at Perth next time in a four-runner contest. Riders claim helps here and should be bang there.
Won an Irish point in good style and also won a bumper at Uttoxeter. Not quite so good over hurdles and has been off the track for a long time so clearly had issues. Best of his form would put him right in the picture if fit and ready.
Big prices and failed to complete in any of her three starts over hurdles so far. Looks limited and needs switch to new yard to bring about some improvement.
Forecasts
Rockportian (11/8), Motueka (15/8), Play The Ace (5/2), Sunset Skye (66/1)
Rockportian will be a big player in this if he is fit and ready to go off such a long absence. The chances are this might be a good opportunity for MOTUEKA to add to his victory at Uttoxeter.
