Verdict
Gordon Elliott has just the one runner here this evening but Blessed King hardly covered himself in glory when a short-priced favourite at Ballinrobe last month and has become expensive to follow. Lucinda Russell runs three but Ryalex looks the best of them having finished second at Kelso on his first start for the yard. Christmas In Usa was placed twice over hurdles at Pau at the start of the year but fell at the last in a maiden point-to-point at Tranwell on his first run in the UK. TRADITIONAL DANCER travelled strongly for a long way at Navan in February. He's very lightly raced and isn't overtaxed on his debut for Iain Jardine.
