In depth
Verdict
Perth winner Talktomenow struggled raised 10lb at Exeter and is fitted with blinkers. O’HANRAHAN BRIDGE has rattled-up a string of seconds in maiden and novice company but he gets another chance handicapping for the first time having finished in front of Scottish Accent over these hurdles back in February. The latter has a recent outing under his belt but Stung For Cash is returning from a lengthy absence.
