    Verdict

    TASTES LIKE MORE appeals more than Tizzy Blue and Catch The Stars. Donald McCain's mare got the better of Stick Together over hurdles three runs ago and has gone on to finish runner-up on both subsequent outings over fences. She was no match for the progressive Ping Pong Sivola on the first of those at Bangor but got much closer to Rate Of Knots at Carlisle and one of these races should come her way before long. Tizzy Blue is the highest rated of those with official ratings following her win at this track over hurdles in April. Her subsequent absence is a concern but the yard is capable of readying one after a break and she has to be considered closely. Catch The Stars has ten lengths to find with the selection on their running at Bangor but that was just her second start for Evan Williams and she may prove capable of better. The other two runners look up against it on all known form and this could be a decent opportunity for Tastes Like More.
