Promising individual. Excellent third of 18 in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Limerick (21f, soft) 28 days ago, travelling strongly long way. Back down in trip. Expected to be bang there off the same mark.

Forecasts

Arch Enemy (9/4), Chef's Kiss (4/1), Well Dressed (6/1), Starman (17/2), Presenting Max (10/1), Duke Of Leggagh (12/1), Seasett (12/1), Jinxs Link (14/1), Chautuaqua (16/1), Barbaha Queen (20/1), Chanceawetmorning (28/1), Wajaaha (28/1)

Verdict

CHEF'S KISS can race offf the same mark as when an excellent strong-travelling third at Limerick last time out so looks the way to go with this drop back in trip also a likely plus. Seasett is also weighted to go well and appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of C&D scorer Arch Enemy and handicap-debutant Duke of Leggagh.
