In a wide open heat, a chance is taken on BERRAHRI who sports an eye shield for the first time. As a two-year-old he had some solid form, most notably when finishing within four-and-a-half lengths of Kingston Hill in a Newbury maiden, and his juvenile campaign culminated with a placed effort in a Deauville conditions race. As a consequence his opening handicap mark was stiff and he has struggled to make an impact. A mark of 57 should be well within his capabilities if the new headgear sharpens him up. Baars Causeway isn't a straightforward customer but Kieren Fallon is an interesting booking for her and she is respected. Appyjack and Speedy Writer are others to consider.

Top Tip: BERRAHRI (12)
Watch out for: BAARS CAUSEWAY (9)

Could have swore I opened a thread

Even more of a lottery than the flat racing...horse can be leading by a country mile and then fall at the last fence / hurdle due to horse and / or jockey fatigue !! Can be frustrating but such is the nature of any gamble...
