Tynecastle Park should be capable of winning one of these before long and this step up in trip can help him finish closer today. However, KINGS RYDE should be able to take a significant step forward now going hurdling and also stepped up in trip. Sure to be well schooled, he gets the vote. Free Bounty looks a potential improver, while a market check for he, Pastures Green and Orchardstown Cross would probably be prudent.
