Verdict
Madera Mist is having a first run over hurdles in almost three years and looks high enough in the weights. Blakeney Point is a regular here but has gone up 7lb for a recent course and distance success and it’s a very long time since Oxwich Bay recorded his only success over timber. Iron Heart has yet to race beyond 2m4f and there is no guarantee that he’ll stay. TED’S FRIEND was behind Blakeney Point over an extended 2m3f here in July but then won over this trip at Worcester and can reverse running with the top weight on better terms.
