Verdict
Jockey bookings point to I Wish You being the pick of Lucinda Russell’s trio in this but the market will be the best guide. CLAP OF THUNDER’s dam placed in a bumper in Ireland and later won a hurdle. He is by Mount Nelson so should have the pace for this. Normy Knight is Flat bred and, like Apples Destiny, by Sir Percy so should handle conditions and there is stamina in the pedigree of Norah's Legacy.
