Verdict

Olly Murphy returned with a four-timer from Southwell last Wednesday so GINISTRELLI is of obvious interest in this having won twice in staying races on the Flat. He had a higher rating than Employer but Richard Newland’s charge is another interesting newcomer while Fergal O’Brien has taken charge of bumper winner Dusty's Choice, who was second over hurdles at Market Rasen in March. Aire Valley Lad won a Newcastle bumper in December and should also have a future over timber.
