Luca Morgan (5) J Ben Pauling, Bourton-on-the-Water T B Joseph Smiddy Jeremy Houghton - Houghtonart S TIMEFORM VIEW Promise in sole bumper. Only modest form in maiden/novice hurdles for Oliver Sherwood last term but rates a possible improver in handicaps for new yard. Also tongue tied first time. TFRHHHHI BHA100

Br B g Trans Island - Touch of Ivory (IRE) O 12 Oaks Racing Gavin Sheehan J Sean Curran, Swindon T

PLAY SMARTER

It’s likely there’s more to come from STANLEY STANLEY so she’s taken to make light of a 6lb rise and confirm recent C&D superiority over Lapford Lad. Norley is another interesting contender now handicapping for Ben Pauling. TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.STANLEY STANLEY 2.LAPFORD LAD 3.NORLEY (IRE)
