1/2

Showed more than previously when sixth of 20 in 3m handicap hurdle at Down Royal 37 days ago, though no extra from 2 out. This return to 20f will suit, and Irish raider is not without interest.

Forecasts

Vee Dancer (1/2), Noble Savage (8/1), Rock The House (10/1), Blackfinch (10/1), Bembridge (14/1), Annual Review (16/1), Dynamite Kentucky (18/1), Wrong Way Harry (20/1), On Springs (20/1), Cheng Gong (22/1), Cremant (33/1), Say Nothing (50/1)

Lots with chances in a very open handicap. ANNUAL REVIEW has shaped with promise on both his runs over 2m since joining Fergal O'Brien so gets the nod with the switch to handicaps and a longer trip expected to suit this son of Yeats. Well-weighted C&D scorer Rock The House is next on the list, although a market move for Irish-raider Vee Dancer would put a different slant on things.
