Panis Angelicus is having a first run since falling at Catterick on New Year’s Day so is probably best watched. Field Exhibition was placing for the first time in 14 attempts over hurdles when third at Southwell but did win over fences here in July. SO SORRY SARAH showed ability in Ireland when trained by Joseph O’Brien. She was pulled up when making her debut for Olly Murphy here last month but is better than that and a clear round should see her in the firing-line. Murray Mount would also have claims on his best form but has been below par lately.
