Thyne For Intersky has not looked a complete natural in two starts over hurdles but has shown enough to beat these and is taken to open his account at the main expense of First Dynasty and Lanos. The selection won both starts in bumpers and made a promising debut over timber when second to Everready here over 2m4f last month. Disappointing over the same trip at Bangor subsequently, the son of Good Thyne is expected to do better back over the minimum trip. First Dynasty has shown promise in two previous starts over timber and has to be respected along with the Philip Hobbs-trained hurdling debutante Salute. A bigger threat though may come from Lanos. The Polish bred gelding showed improved form on his return to hurdling in April and, if fit enough, holds solid claims. None of the others make much appeal in a race that is taken to go to Thyne For Intersky.
