No form to go on here in this junior national hunt flat race so the market may be the best indicator; without that information we will let the pin fall down on COEUR DE FOU. It is a long way for Tom George to send his unraced three-year-old, especially when we consider that it is his only runner of the meeting. A well-related French-bred, the gelding is fancied to run a big race. Of Alan Swinbank's pair, If You Knew Suzy looks the pick but the market may well point as to which is the more fancied of his duo, whilst Shut The Bar represents George Baker and any shortening in the betting would be interesting. Kinetic Art, Shaharmore and Bishops Heir are all others for consideration; however with a nod to the market, we will take a chance on Coeur De Fou.
Bishops Heir Turbo Speed gelding out of Linns Heir.
Coeur De Fou (FR) Limnos gelding out of Folly Lady.
