Verdict

Nicky Henderson has won three of the last four renewals of this but his representatives this time, Take To Heart and Royal Irish Hussar arrive needing to prove they retain their enthusiasm for the game. Braavos represents a stable in form and conditions are in his favour, whilst Coilte Lass should improve for the quicker ground and a reduction in her handicap mark. BLACK MISCHIEF arrives after a break and that is probably a good time to catch him. The trip and going should be right for him and his rider is good value for her claim.
