In depth
Verdict
An interesting bumper to end the card and we like the look of Tihui Two, with Swift Water and Don And Jerry two others to consider. Simon Earle's five-year-old showed plenty of ability on her debut, going down by just a head to the Paul Webber trained Star Shot. It took a while for the penny to drop that day so, she should improve for the experience. Ludlow winner Don And Jerry will find this company much less taxing than the ones she encountered at Sandown back in March and she should be in the shake up. Swift Water looks the pick of the debutantes. Tom George's gelding is related to numerous bumper and hurdle winners and will no doubt be well forward for his first racecourse visit. The booking of Tony McCoy for Mark Brisbourne's Zen Garden catches the eye and this one may prove best of the remainder, but Tihui Two has the proven form and gets the vote today.
