Warren Greatrex has a fine record in bumpers and also on this track which points to the obvious chance of VINCIAETTES. Purchased for £72,000 after his victory at Limerick in March, where he started odds-on, he has a huge amount of scope and can start repaying his connections. Fountains Windfall gained a very easy debut success at Fontwell in June but could not handle the step up in class at Cheltenham and Lemtara Bay, though well supported, was beaten a long way into third at Uttoxeter in June when Western Sunrise was just behind.
