FIRST RACE

TIMEFORM VIEW Three-time winner on Flat who got off the mark on second hurdles outing atTaunton in February. Ran at least as well in defeat under a penalty next 2 starts and perhaps found the longer trip against her when well held back at aforementioned venue (19f) last time.

LADY GWEN showed a good attitude to get the better of one who has fallen a long way in the weights over C&D a fortnight ago and looks up to completing the hat-trick.

Start In Front was left poorly placed in a small-field event on his return at Wetherby PLAY SMARTER and shouldn’t be taken lightly now returning to a more suitable grade, especially with his stable back amongst the winners.

TIMEFORM VIEW Promise on final start in bumpers but was a most fortunate winner of a 5-runner novice at Sedgefield in April, well adrift before being left clear last. Predictably found life hard back down in trip under a penalty at Warwick 6 months later and has been handed a stiff-looking mark.
