FormscanBy Gary Carson - Not the strongest looking contest and A NOD TO GETAWAY may be able bag a follow up win. The Getaway gelding was a game winner at Wexford last time when holding Rightfolksplease by a neck, with the front two pulling a few lengths clear. Judging by the jockey's comments afterwards better ground and slightly further should suit now. Depeche Mo didn't run too badly when staying on into fourth at Wexford last time and is another who might benefit from better ground now and a step up in trip. Champagne Vacation had a couple of decent runs in competitive races last autumn and dropping into this bottom grade for the first time he could play a part.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 80-95
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
