In depth

Verdict

Plume d'Oudairies showed ability in two starts on the flat in France, has joined a top yard that normally has their runners well schooled and she is taken to make a British debut ahead of Supa Tramp and Yellow Flag. The last mentioned has failed to give any sign of encouragement in two starts since joining Jonjo O'Neill but may be capable of better. Ned Ludd showed ability from limited opportunities and has to be of interest first time out over hurdles. He make more appeal than Noel Chance's Tabaran, who was well held on his first start for current connections at Bangor recently. Gary Moore's Supa Tramp was lightly raced on the level and could be of interest switched to hurdles for his shrewd handler but Plume d'Oudairies has solid looking credentials and she is preferred.
