Get The Appeal had to be hard ridden to land the odds at Wincanton. She will know more today but will need improvement to defy her penalty. At the likely odds, we’d rather take a chance on AT FIRST GLANCE who has shown promise in a point-to-point and a bumper and should enjoy a switch to hurdles. Outonpatrol was never travelling at Chepstow so is best watched while Cast In Grey will have to prove she handles the ground. Bee Crossing has placed in five of her seven starts over timber but will likely find at least one too good again.
