Race Tip

POTTERS CHARM (6) looks an exciting prospect following a pair of impressive wins at Cheltenham this season including an 11L success in the 2m5f G2 Hyde Novices Hurdle. Top chance. ROADLESSTRAVELLED (7) arrives unbeaten under rules after a 3L victory over Country Mile in a G2 at Haydock last month. Main danger. CELTIC DINO (1) caught the eye a month ago at Ascot when successful by 4.25L in a 2m introductory hurdle. The runner-up has won since to boost the form. Makes appeal. COUNTRY MILE (2) confirmed the form from the aforementioned Haydock G2 event winning two weeks ago at Cheltenham tackling the trip. Not discounted.
