Verdict

Sir Valentine and The Last Day have been chasing. MISS HERITAGE remains 11lb (lower or higher) than her last success but you can’t fault her consistency and she deserves a change of luck. Rowland Ward could make life interesting but was easily brushed aside by Edwardstone last time at Market Rasen. Time Flies By is still seeking a first win over hurdles and is running against useful handicappers again while Blacko has yet to scale last season’s heights.
