Verdict

Irish-raider LARGY SHARK looked a useful prospect when going in at the first time of asking over hurdles at Ayr so is fancied to make it 2-2 in this sphere after his break. Giovinco also has much better days ahead of him judged on his facile success at the same track so rates a big threat though. Point-winner Busty Boy and the lightly-raced Theirshegoes shouldn't be underestimated either in an intriguing novice hurdle.

  1. LARGY SHARK
  2. GIOVINCO (IRE)
