Tora Petcha, a course and distance winner 11 days ago in another seller, has a penalty to carry now and he may struggle to give weight away all round following that narrow success and preference is for TRIBIANI, who gets the verdict ahead of Dobravany. Kevin Morgan's gelding has only had the two starts over hurdles since coming over from Ireland and has disappointed on each occasion as he has in recent starts on the flat but this is a poor contest and it may be too soon to write him off. Mick Easterby's Outback Bob is lightly raced having only had the three starts so far but he needs to improve to trouble the judge, while Conor Dore's Noubian has been well held in most starts over timber here and in Ireland but is now being dropped in class. This should not take a great deal of winning and Tribiani is taken to land it. Keith Goldsworthy's mare ran well when a close third behind Rhinestone Ruby in a maiden hurdle at Worcester just over two weeks ago and a similar level of form should suffice in this grade.
