Verdict

The mare Charm Offensive made a pleasing start when exceeding market expectations (40-1) to finish a closing second over C&D in mid-November, while a strong market move for the well-related Get Rich Die Plyin would offer immense confidence for the once-raced (now Gordon Elliott trained) former pointer. However, with Nicky Richards responsible for a bumper winner at Musselburgh on Friday (Elios D'Or), and having sent out the hugely exciting Ribble Valley to take this contest 12 months ago, all eyes will undoubtedly be drawn to the Trevor Hemmings-owned newcomer CASTLE RUSHEN. At this stage of affairs (without the benefit of a formed market) he's the suggested advice.
  1. Castle Rushen
  2. Get Rich Die Plyin
  3. Charm Offensive
