Verdict

Lucinda Russell makes life difficult for punters throughout the card with a host of multiple entries but relies solely on LIVVY INN here. The gelding landed a Hamilton handicap on the Flat in June when scoring decisively and has respectable handicap hurdle form in the book too. The overall standard here is modest and he should be good enough if somewhere near his best. Skylancer, absent since December, brings reasonable form to the table and rates a threat if ready for his return which is rarely a concern with Tim Vaughan inmates. Mia's Vic, an Irish raider, shaped well when fourth in a soft-ground Roscommon handicap last time and earns shortlist inclusion on that evidence.
