Verdict

Wild Shot was due to run at Downpatrick yesterday so it will be interesting if he turns up here. IT’S GOOD TO LAUGH (NAP) only dead-heated at Perth but that was upsides a fellow hurdling debutant that had finished fifth in last season’s Champion Bumper. Also a winner on the Flat last month, Jennie Candlish’s four-year-old can defy his penalty with the going in his favour again. Thunder In Milan was just beaten by a subsequent hurdles winner in a bumper at Ayr last season and is preferred to stablemate Readysteadybeau. Hildenley won over an extended mile at Hamilton last month but will have stamina to prove.
