Verdict

Theatre Territory’s second at Cheltenham was franked when the winner scored again at Newbury a few days later. Pearl Royale should make a chaser but may need this and On Demand will need to jump better than she did at Exeter last week. Act Now would have struggled against most of these over hurdles but Secret Door is an interesting recruit to chasing having already been placed between the flags. JESSBER’S DREAM (NAP) probably has more class then her rivals as she won a Grade 2 over hurdles and was also placed at the highest level. She ran well in a pipe-opener here last month.
