Verdict

Winning hurdler Le Precieux finished a well beaten fourth at Kempton on his debut in this code though this longer trip will suit. But NEEDS TO BE SEEN is rated 75 on previous efforts on the Flat and John Ryan's charge should have the measure of these having won over timber at Musselburgh just last month. Let's Sway won over fences last week but is rated only 44 on the level while Alacritas is another with plenty to find with the selection on these terms as she also steps up in trip.
