Gold Chain has won twice over hurdles since winning this under Emma Sawyer last year and could go well again. But STORMIN TOM looks another good chance on the card for Rachel Richardson as the latter pair found only one too good over today’s trip at Musselburgh recently and this looks easier. Chelsea's Boy should do better back over 2m today while Miss Tree won over 1m6f at Redcar in May but was well beaten on a previous start over this distance and Transpennine Star is another with something to prove as regards stamina.
