Alright Sunshine has won four times on the Flat and three bumpers but he’s having a first run over hurdles today and wasn’t at his best last year, though was competing at a decent level. Malpas was clear when falling at the last at Catterick and will be fancied to gain compensation sooner rather than later while there should also be more to come from Fabrique En France, who had something in hand when landing a Wincanton maiden. ROCKSTAR RONNIE didn’t find as much as expected off the bridle at Wetherby but that was his debut under Rules and he’ll know more today.
