Verdict

A few of these have fair claims, Bialco was better last time at Haydock and enters calculations on the strength of that run while Knockrobin ran well over a longer trip here last time and could improve for having had a wind op since. Lad Of Luck was backed to win a Chepstow bumper last year and, having run well at Huntingdon on his hurdles bow in January, any money behind him would be noted. CLOONE LADY changed hands for £40,000 after winning an Irish point-to-point last month and might be the answer receiving weight all around now.
