In depth

Verdict

ORMELLO has been frustrating to follow over chase fences but Lucinda Russell attempts to take advantage of a significantly lower hurdles mark so we are compelled to follow this afternoon. The previous course winner seems capable of acting on most types of ground. Andorn won a recent event on the flat so fitness will not be an issue. Cape Secret won a Uttoxeter seller under Tony McCoy though was unable to follow up when tried in non plating fare at Tramore. Hey Charlie has clearly had issues that have effected his presence on a racecourse but Nicky Richards is not adverse to taking time with his horses and it would be no surprise to see the gelding attracting support beforehand. Maolisa won a three miler and is noteworthy given his trainer's strong record with similar types.
