9/4
From the family of useful chaser (stays 3¼m) Storm Control. 8/1, showed ability once he'd warmed to his task in similar event at Stratford on debut a fortnight ago. Dan Skelton-trained winner then looks a fair prospect and he can improve.

£16,000 half-brother to numerous winners, including French hurdler/chaser Dashing Rose (17f-23f winner, by Varese) and useful hurdler Bravissimo (19f winner, by Al Namix). Top yard landed first one of these races run this season.

Brother to 4 winners, including fair hurdler Lady Reset and bumper winner Luckinthecity. 11/8 favourite, looked awkward on debut at Stratford (Billytherealbigred second) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now.

Sea The Moon filly. Sister to 2 winners, including fairly useful 19f/21f hurdle winner Favorite Moon. Dam 1¼m winner. One to take seriously on debut.

Forecasts

Francina (11/8), Billytherealbigred (9/4), Great Valley (3/1), Summer Night City (8/1)

Verdict

Dan Skelton landed the first race of the season of this type at Stratford recently and GREAT VALLEY is an obvious one on paper for the yard. He's preferred to fellow newcomer Francina and Billytherealbigred, who was second in the aforementioned contest.

  1. Great Valley3/1
  2. Francina11/8
  3. Billytherealbigred9/4
