Verdict

Sophie Leech saddles Tasheba, who won at Cartmel and Bangor last month beating Kilascan on the latter occasion, but also has RIVER D'OR in the line-up. He's not been seen since April but had some form earlier this year which suggests he may be a bit better than these. McCoy rides Stratford hurdle winner Sentimentaljourney for retainer J P McManus but his form over fences so far has been modest, though he's still preferred to stablemate Mission Complete. Hunters Lodge should make a better chaser than hurdler and could be the pick of the remainder with Beggar's Velvet and Cuban Piece both a little disappointing lately.
