Verdict
PRAY FOR A RAINBOW has been hurdling all year but is 5lb lower than when finishing runner-up in last year’s renewal to Heavenly Promise and Sam Drinkwater’s charge may well reverse running. The latter has failed to figure subsequently and broke a blood vessel at Huntingdon last time. Change Ur Tune beat Out For Justice well enough over track and trip last month but was pulled up on his latest start while Cruising Bye disappointed at Uttoxeter having finished a close-up third at Southwell before that.
