Race Tip

Listed-winning hurdler MARBLE SANDS (4) can make a successful flat debut. He won his most recent start attempting fences and may use this as a springboard to the Cheltenham Festival this month. The consistent ELEANOR CROSS (12) was beaten a nose by the re-opposing CAUSTIC (2) tackling this trip at Lingfield and is 5.5lb better off this time to rate a chance while the second mentioned placed in two jumpers flat races before switching to the flat and could have more to offer in this discipline. Multiple jumpers flat and hurdle winner SECRET SQUIRREL (8) also demands serious consideration.
