The Ayr 4:00 has cut up badly with only four standing their ground from the initial 23. The result is that Kadarann on 11-12 is the only one in the handicap, with his nearest rival Thyne Will Tell racing from 8lbs 'wrong' in the weights. We can put a line through Ichi Beau and Glenfarclas Boy, the latter an unbelievable three and a half stone out of the handicap! the big question is, can Kadarann give nearly two stone to Thyne Will Tell. He should be able to-just- based on his form earlier this season, but Philip Hobbs charge will be no pushover, as he was going as well as anything when falling at the cross fence four out in Wincanton's Tote Exacta Levy Board Intermediate Chase on his last engagement in December. Given time to recover and with the ground now in his favour, Thyne Will Tell represents a little bit of value against the favourite.
