The 5:35 at Ayr sees a few out of form animals line up , but Ruby Walsh is an eyecatching booking for Mary Reveley's Loop The Loup who has not run since being brought down behind Rooster Booster at Cheltenham last November. Mirjan's form leaves a lot to be desired and in reality Florries Son appears to be an obvious candidate. Martin Todhunter's eight-year-old likes to bowl along in the lead and will be suited by the conditions. A winner of four of his last six outings, Florries Son may still be a step ahead of the handicapper despite hacking up at Wetherby. Off 10st 9lb, he gets a confident vote.
