SHOAL BAY made a good impression on debut at Worcester and the market suggested such a run was expected. The fact that he tackles obstacles for the first time today is only a minor concern given his trainer so he is worth chancing. Contented rates the main danger and Richard Johnson will have a clue of his mount's prospects given he rode Shoal Bay at Worcester. Also expected to be in the mix is Darling Maltaix who should appreciate this longer trip as long as he doesn't pull too hard.
