In depth

Verdict

Silence Reigns,An Capall Dubh and Wings of Hope look the three to concentrate on in this hunter chase and the confident Silence Reigns. The selection was a fair third behind Mr Woodland last time out. This slightly longer trip will suit and with conditions in his favour he is impossible to oppose. An Capall rates the main danger on his latest second behind Chasing The Bride but all his best form is over a longer trip and for that reason he is opposed. Wings Of Hope is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Willy Willy but he gave the impression he would be suited by a longer trip and he may not have the toe to lie up with the principals of the remainder Hip Pocket won well when last seen and could run well at a price but for the winner we return to Silence Reigns whose form looks rock solid in the context of this race.
