Less than half of this field have had a run. Market Rasen third Conchita may be the best of those but that’s not saying much. In-form Keith Dalgleish runs two but Brian Hughes rides newcomer ALRIGHT SUNSHINE, a £22,000 half-brother to four winners on the Flat – he may have more speed than most of these. Book Of Invasions is also related to a host of winners on the Flat and is a rare runner here for County Kildare handler Ken Condon. Lossiemouth is another who shouldn’t be short of pace but Bergamot has already had wind surgery and wears a tongue-tie on his first start.
