Mam Trasna won at Kelso after an opening third at Punchestown. Hello Bob made an impressive winning start at Musselburgh but James Bethell’s filly also has a penalty to carry. Big Bad Bear has already had a few chances while Cage Of Fear and Shaws Bridge may have a bit to prove following their latest efforts. GUY is by Getaway out of a Turgeon mare who won a Listed race over hurdles in France. He could be anything and is taken to make a winning debut.
