Verdict
A dual winner on the Flat, NIKHI made a promising debut over timber when third at Ffos Las on her first start for Peter Bowen. She’s taken to confirm running with Qoya though the latter is still preferred to the Irish challenger and Down Royal third Circus Act. Vision Of Hope failed to settle on her hurdling bow and may improve while Feryl Beryl goes hurdling for the first time having struggled in a Listed bumper.
