UNANSWERED PRAYERS hails from a successful family and displayed enough in bumpers last term to make him of serious interest now hurdling. The market will reveal plenty, but Jet Plane and Arab Moon are sure to do better in this sphere at some point.

RACE SUMMARY

LIGHT FLICKER is low mileage for his age and could have more to offer this season after a productive 2020/21. Writteninthesand is another lightly-raced sort who probably has a bigger performance in him if getting his jumping together, while Scottsdale has each-way claims at a price.

RACE SUMMARY

ORCHARD GROVE is a last-time-out winner up against a bunch of rivals with something to prove, so he’s a straightforward choice to go in again. Simply True hasn’t impressed over hurdles but there’s still hope for better based on his Flat exploits, so he could feature if strong in the betting, while Brooksway Fair isn’t a forlorn hope returning to hurdles.

RACE SUMMARY

Plenty arrive with questions to answer and it may pay to side with handicap debutante LET’S GET REAL. She offered only minor encouragement in mares’ maiden/novice hurdles but is just the type her excellent yard excels with in handicaps and improvement rates a distinct possibility.

Gaia Vallis ran well at Fontwell recently and can also feature, whilst Sideshift needs monitoring in the betting.

RACE SUMMARY

Plenty of potential on show in a most intriguing novice chase, but it’s hard to oppose MILKWOOD who has the best hurdling form on offer and advertised his well-being with a fine second in a hot Galway handicap earlier in the summer. Neil Mulholland’s smart sort is taken to go in at the chief expense of fellow chasing debutant Annual Invictus with another promising sort in Faivoir next on the list.

RACE SUMMARY

The vote goes to SANDY BROOK, who shaped well despite showing signs of inexperience when finishing runner-up on hurdling debut at Fontwell back in March. This step up in trip is sure to suit Chris Gordon’s charge, so he gets the nod to go one better on reappearance. The Nicky Henderson trained pair The Bomber Liston and Another Brown Bear could provide the biggest threats, ahead of Jersey.
