Hurdle/Bumper: Soft. Chase: soft to heavy View all races

Formscan By Tom Weekes - SHELLRUNFORBRIGGS hinted at being potentially quite capable last term and, being a progressive five-year-old, could do better this term. Her form was in-and-out after she scored at Naas last December but finished second in a Listed chase last February before winning both over hurdles and fences, at Limerick and Kilbeggan. She lacks race-fitness but should better today’s 112 rating. Course-specialist Inthenickoftime has a race-fitness edge and while he races from a career-high rating, should nonetheless compete. Castleheath has also been running well and has a fine course record.
