Flashing Glance is upped in class bidding for a hat-trick after beating Ballyhome at Market Rasen while Enniscoffey Oscar beat the same horse at the same track back in July and is preferred to stablemate Boreham Bill. The Cashel Man reverts to hurdling after a spin over fences and makes more appeal than Storm Goddess, placed in a lower grade at Cheltenham recently, but a chance is taken on YOUNEVERCALL (NAP). He’s been off the track for some time but won a Grade 2 hurdle at Sandown on last year’s reappearance and landed this race back in 2018.
