A modest maiden featuring three runners from the Dan Skelton yard. Harry rides hurdling debutant Teddy's Acre, who is having a first run for the stable, but Bridget Andrews’ mount ICONIC HERO is preferred as the former point will have learned plenty from his fifth at Bangor. Dontcounturchikens has shown some ability in two runs over timber with winning bumper Zoutoise and former Irish pointer Perpignan also worth a second look.
