In depth

Verdict

Chitchat Sally, a winner between the flags, ran five times over hurdles in Ireland but never placed so this should rest between BASFORD and Imperial Data. Having struggled to get his head in front previously, Jennie Candlish’s charge has won two of his last three and was second off this mark when last running in a handicap. Rebecca Menzies’ runner is far less exposed but needs to improve on a couple of seconds at Hexham.
