New York Oscar, Hurricane Hen and Rann Na Cille all make some semblance of appeal in this race and we are with Hurricane Hen. Granted, he has to find a few pounds on official figures but David Evans' charge is in rude form at the moment and if securing an early pitch, can go well at the likely odds. New York Oscar is one of the top rated participants. He is capable but has become frustrating. Rann Na Cille is exposed as ordinary although she does try her hardest. What Katie Did is tried over this shorter trip. She is arguably better over six. Fast Feet was well turned over when sent off as favourite for a similar contest at Chester. Sinead Of Aglish returns from absence while Penrice Castle is yet to prove that she has conclusively trained on from two to three years. The Little Fizzer is a previous winner at Kempton. A well contested event in which Hurricane Hen is our selection.
