Verdict

SAINT HELENA can cap a good day for followers of the champion jockey by adding to her victory at Southwell. She's always had ability but that was the first occasion she'd shown it over timber. Curragh Hall has been running over much longer trips since arriving from Ireland but Western Movie has each-way claims if putting his best foot forward and Toe To Toe won here in July, though is 10lb higher now and stopped very quickly last time.
