Parisienne Gale looked a mare to follow earlier in the campaign and she can get back to winning ways here at the main expense of Bishop's Bridge and Detonateur. The selection just has a little in hand on official ratings with her allowances here, she jumps well, will be better suited by the return to this sort of trip, and has a first-time tongue tie to help, so she can prove up to the task. Like the selection, Bishop's Bridge is also a course winner and he makes his chasing debut here. He did always look a chaser in the making, so he should be able to handle this introduction and put in a good performance to boot, but he clearly lacks public chasing experience. Detonateur looks the only other serious contender. He jumps well enough and likes a sound surface, though this trip may be on the short side. However, it will suit Parisienne Gale and we take her to score.
