This four-runner affair can go to Harapour, but each of the runners holds a chance of sorts. The selection was in the process of giving the talented Trabolgan a good race at Lingfield two runs ago when blundering away his chance two from home. He made amends at Plumpton last time and, with the underfoot conditions likely to suit him a treat today, can go well from what still seems a fair mark. The Sister continues to run well, although she has been raised four pounds for her Huntingdon defeat last time; Aristoxene won over hurdles but needs to step up on his chasing debut at Huntingdon last time, and I Hear Thunder has so far found at least one to beat him in his chasing races, although he is well up to winning over fences. For today, though, we are happy to side with Harapour.
