THE TIMEFORM VIEW MUTUAL RESPECT hasn’t been in top form since returning from a break but the assessor is giving him every chance so he’s awarded the tentative vote. Uncle Al will need a good test at this trip but still commands respect, while Grandad’s Cap may well leave his hurdles form behind now tackling the larger obstacles.

TIMEFORM VIEW £50,000 purchase out of unraced sister to smart hurdler/high-class chaser Hidden Cyclone.

THE TIMEFORM VIEW KAKA’S COUSIN changed hands for £160,000 following a runner-up effort in a point and with his yard going better now, this looks a maiden there for the taking. Centurion’s Sister receives weight from most and she can make her presence felt again, while this step back up in trip will suit Ballyeaston.
