Verdict
WESTERN HOME (NAP) looked home and dry when clear of the field at Perth but botched the last fence and fell. Gordon Elliott’s mare will be looking for compensation today. Amuse Me reverts to chasing after a placed effort over hurdles here and Ballycool slips further down the weights after finishing fifth over track and trip in May. Humbie has not looked the force of old this year and slips further down the handicap while Up And Go has done all his winning so far in soft ground.
