Going: Heavy
Soldier In Milan
A few of these bring plenty of potential, not least Emmet Mullins' winning pointer SOLDIER IN MILAN who posted a useful effort on just his second chasing start when a close fourth at Gowran last time. This lightly-raced 7-y-o gets the nod over Shuffle The Deck, who also has better days ahead of him in this sphere, while Kiss Will, Pray Tell and Spread Boss Ted all command respect too in a fascinating beginners chase.

Smart winning hurdler but he's been off the track for 11 months since being pulled up in Baring Bingham Hurdle at Cheltenham last March. Still commands respect though now starting out over fences for top yard.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCheltenham2m 5fGood to SoftHurdlepu/11Leopardstown2m 6f 53ySoftHurdlepu/12Naas2m 4fSoft (Soft to Heavy in places)Hurdle2/8Ballinrobe2m 5f 77yGood to Yielding (Yielding in places)Hurdle1/14Cheltenham2m 87ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle7/11- 2My Trump CardJ: Danny GilliganT: Gordon Elliott, IrelandU78-785Age 840/140/133/1
