      In depth

      Verdict

      Running In Heels has been hurdling since recording a first victory over fences at Limerick last month but seems to have her fair share of weight at present. CHU CHU PERCY was well backed to complete a quick double at Perth 12 days ago but only beat one home. That may not have been his true running and he gets another chance here as there is still scope for improvement over fences. Nemean Lion won a novice hurdle on this card 12 months ago and seems best suited to small fields so could be interesting tackling fences for the first time.
