Verdict

Ca Le Ferra took a heavy fall at Kelso last March so it is no surprise that he didn't turn out again until November when he led until the last at Sedgefield. He looks capable of better but the former Ireland-trained Dear Sire has been a big disappointment since making a promising start for Donald McCain at Sedgefield. WINDSHEAR, three times a winner on the Flat and placed at Group 3 level, is an interesting entry here. Paul Townend travels over from Ireland for the ride and that hint should be taken. Sophie Olivia showed promise in bumpers and on her hurdling debut here in January where she made the early running and stayed on quite well. Acdc has had very little experience so did very well to chase home the odds-on Kimberlite Candy at Newcastle with the remainder well beaten. Ramore Will, a winning point-to-pointer, has been running in better company in Ireland and could get involved.
