Verdict
Boundsy Boy is back on a winning mark but has disappointed the last twice. Ravenscar was in good form at the start of the year but hasn’t run since April while Ring Of Beara has become hard to place. Telhimlisten will be back over fences sooner rather than later and BELLA BLUESKY will enjoy a fitness advantage over many of her rivals. She was only headed on the run-in over track and trip earlier this month and likes it here. It was very testing when Cuzco Du Mathan opened his account at Cartmel and he’s 12lb higher here, though Leah Noreci takes off 10lb again. Duyfken steps up in trip on his reappearance but Caithness won over course and distance last month and is the least exposed of these.
