Not a strong contest, so any market confidence for the newcomer Wadlyatink Now should probably be noted. Tildas Icon was far from disgraced on debut for Pat Griffin at Hexham last month (weakened up the hill) and should be better suited by dropping back in trip, whilst Leostar brings a solid enough level of bumper form to the table in a very winnable maiden hurdle. However, the Olly Murphy trained CAPTIVA ISLAND has an official rating of 113, and with some respectable placed efforts over hurdles/in bumpers on his CV, has probably found the ideal race in which to finally shed his maiden status.
