Fair on the Flat and ran to a similar level when in the frame both hurdle starts this summer. More needed for win purposes, though.

It's Good To Laugh¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish

5/4

Useful handicapper on Flat, stays 12.5f, won at Chester last time. Should be up to making his presence felt in a race of this nature over hurdles.

11/10

Landed first 2 bumpers starts before excellent fifth in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham. Well beaten in Grade 2 at Aintree final start but he has the scope to do well over hurdles. Hood on.

Forecasts

Super Six (11/10), It's Good To Laugh (5/4), Ibbenburen (7/2), Gandhi Maker (12/1), Netywell (14/1), If Not For Dylan (20/1), Kiss My Face (22/1), Trouble Shooter (25/1), Pegs Theatre (100/1), Lewa House (125/1)

SUPER SIX boasts some strong bumper form and possesses the physical scope to do well over hurdles, so he's fancied to make a winning start. It's Good To Laugh, a useful recruit from the Flat who was successful at Chester recently, looks the main threat.
