Race Tip

CELTIC DINO (2) ended last season with a 0.5L success in a course and distance jumpers flat race six months ago. Top chance now hurdling. MA SHANTOU (5) was off the mark at the second attempt at Huntingdon two runs back tackling a 2m jumpers flat event running 6.5L clear in March before struggling among G2 company at Aintree. Back down in standard and can improve. Respect after a break. VAGUELY ROYAL (8) showed a good level of ability on the flat including a fair 1m6f fifth at Goodwood two runs ago. Interesting making hurdle debut. AMERICAN LAND (1) rates next best.
