Going - Soft. Raining

Formscan By Mark Nunan - WACKESTONE has shown promise on the Flat and can make a winning start over hurdles. Third in a strong 1m2f maiden at Navan when last seen in April, the Australia gelding handles soft ground and has had time to mature over the summer. Those with jumping experience look vulnerable to a potentially smart newcomer and Gordon Elliott’s runner fits the bill. Bridezilla acquitted herself well on hurdling debut when second here last month and this slightly longer trip should suit her. Sopelana was a fair way behind Bridezilla on that occasion before finishing third at Killarney and has place claims again. Market support for Emmet Mullins’ newcomer Circle Of Secrets would be significant. %0A%0A
