Verdict

Given her purchase price and the fact that connections are willing to travel a long way for her debut TARA WEST having shown promise in a modestly-run bumper over a trip that wouldn’t have brought the best out of her is taken to make a winning hurdling debut. She may not have things all her own way though as both Eva’s Oskar and Flemens Story have shown that they are more that capable of competing at this level. Huntsmans Jog is also respected despite a poor run last time he has a future at staying trips over obstacles.
