First Flow (1/9), Coole Well (11/4), Haldon Hill (6/1), Tinctoria (50/1)

Verdict

FIRST FLOW has placed behind useful looking rivals in his two chase starts to date and he can get off the mark at the third time of asking with victory in this four runner novices' event. The selection can see off Coole Well who ran well on his first start over fences while third place can go to chasing debutant Haldon Hill.
