Verdict

Boreham Bill is the only runner for whom fitness is not an issue, but he does not look one to rely on and a chance is taken on RAVENSDALE. The lightly raced gelding represents leading connections and, although the handicapper has taken no chances, he looks a nice prospect and he came to hand early last year. Mia's Storm developed into a top-class novice chaser last season before taking heavy falls on her last two starts. Alan King's mare has a good record when fresh although it is likely she has other targets in mind after this.
  1. Ravensdale
  2. Mia's Storm
