This looks a race to savour with plenty of potential future winners entered. Emma Lavelle has a good record in this race and DE RASHER COUNTER may add to that with his yard striking form in the last few days. There was little wrong with his hurdling debut and his Irish form suggests the softer ground will serve him better. The weight he receives from previous winners Chosen Path and White Moon could be the difference in these conditions. Rhaegar looked an intriguing prospect when landing his bumper in May and he has to enter calculations with the yard in top form.
