Only a 5 runner race and 3rd place will ensure a profit.

Should be a nice little booster for the Cheltenham bank here.

Donald mcain is 0/2 with his hurdlers but Market Rasen and was o-17 with them last season here. This isn't the track he sends hurdlers to win. ROBERT DE BRUCE has shown next to nothing in 3 hurdles runs so far and Lorcan Murray has remains onboard. Likely to need this first run back and is running over a trip 1mile to short. He should be left a long way behind the other 4.


So only need to beat one of the remaining 3 runners to profit. Though will hopefully beat them all.


Lots of money about for Colin Tizzards SIZING CUZIMANO today but I doubt it's connected to the stable. They have only ever sent 3 horses here before and they all got beat.
Was unplaced and well beat all 3 runs. Beaten 47 lengths last time at Exeter. Horse needs more of a stamina test yet is dropping back in trip, gets anhamdicap mark after today's race. Unlikely to be involved today.

Cash to ash should beat the Tizzard horse.


FIRST DRIFT and BALLYVIC BORU are short prices at the head of the market.

First Drift won 18 days ago but carries a penalty here and the Ben case horses since that win have been running badly. This one could struggle here.

BALLYVIC BORU looks the likeliest winner but again could be vulnerable under a penalty.


CASH TO ASH is getting weight from the top 2 and is open to improvement after just 1 hurdles run. Should progress on that initial experience. Opener at 50/1 last time but backed into 33/1 and ran well to get 3rd.
This is an easier race and looks very plausible that he could win this with ground conditions no problem.

Should be hard to keep out of the first 3 and with the top 2 giving the improver weight then 2nd or 1st becomes possible.
