Placed twice at Lingfield this season, Clondaw Robin will be fancied to give Andy Irvine a first winner since he took over the license at the East Grinstead yard. He lacks a bit of scope but so do most of his rivals. RIGHT HAND OF GOD is just preferred, however, as there was always a likelihood he’d make a better chaser than hurdler. Early Days has placed between the flags so is another who could profit from a switch to fences but his stable is really struggling for winners. En Coeur was second over track and trip last time but is now 0-13.
