Verdict

HEART OF A LION has been very lightly raced since his chase debut success at Ludlow in 2021 but arrives here having very much caught the eye from a long way back when third at Fontwell (19.5f) 4 weeks ago and, unexposed at this sort of trip, he could be worth chancing to build on that now. The returning Oceans Red and Kabrit head up the dangers, with Lady Tremaine not out of things either.

  1. HEART OF A LION (IRE)
  2. OCEANS RED
  3. KABRIT (IRE)
