Piedita is a very interesting newcomer in this as she won three times over 2m on the Flat when trained by Sir Mark Prescott. She may do better over a bit further over hurdles, however, so we’ll stick with the experience of Let The Heirs Walk and GOOBINATOR. The former finally got off the mark in a Sedgefield maiden earlier this month but the latter has the stronger form having won at Wetherby and Carlisle and finished second in between. He was particularly impressive last time and a tendency to jump left could help him here.
