Winner £4,753 - 8 runners

2m 2f 111y

Going: Good

Surface: Turf

Race Tip

Switching to top trainer Nicky Henderson saw IN THE AIR (3) winning at Southwell (2m4 1/2f) a week ago. The Freddie Gordon claim negates some of the 8lb penalty he carries and a repeat success is anticipated. Bottom weight ASIAN SPICE (9) goes well on decent ground. This previous course winner cannot be ignored delivering first start since finishing second attempting a handicap hurdle at Stratford in May. With a G1-placing WAR LORD (1) is too well-handicapped to ignore in this grade. GUSTOSO (5) finished third in a novices handicap hurdle at Perth during April and may get involved returning to action.
