Jim Dreaper sent Shernaz to become Plumpton's first ever Irish-trained winner last week and the eight-year-old had previously scored at Tramore. He was engaged at Towcester yesterday, however. The ex-Irish STORMYISLAND AHEAD hasn't had much luck over fences so far but isn't one to give up on just yet and, if Shernaz doesn't turn up, is the one most likely to take advantage as Halucha looked well suited by fast ground when scoring at Towcester last month and makes his debut over fences in a handicap. Just The Job was in cracking form over hurdles at this time last year but needs some give in the ground unlike Wrapitupboys, who was bouncing off the fast going before falling at Exeter and has raced in unsuitable conditions subsequently.
