Spider Flight gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fair chaser who became unreliable (stayed 3¼m) Rostello. Maiden pointer but not seen since 2023. Wears tongue strap. Likely best watched unless market vibes are positive.

50/1

Well held sole start in Points and similar story on hurdles debut here in July. Tries longer trip now but will be of more interest when sent handicapping.

Forecasts

Three Pikes (10/11), Percy Shelley (6/4), Thoughtsarethings (4/1), Flawless Clarity (14/1), Woodview Lad (25/1), Famous Shoes (33/1), Master Muggins (50/1), Ontherunagain (80/1), Click On The Link (125/1), Gigilou (200/1), The Kings Soldier (300/1)

PERCY SHELLEY has been in good form on the Flat and has the assistance of Sean Bowen on his hurdling bow. He can land the spoils. Three Pikes and Thoughtsarethings may provide the chief threat.
