Race Tip

IRANDANDO HAS (1) struggled keeping fit since moving to the UK from France. Did look above average both starts this season and went well when runner up at Ayr six weeks ago. Worth giving close consideration as could prove hard to beat. DARTMOUTH CASTLE (3) bounced back to form producing a strong performance at Ludlow three weeks back. That might see him go close. LIPSTICK TRACES (10) wears a hood for the first time and is best watched on return to action having not been seen for 191 days. THE SHANACHIE (8) goes hurdling for the first time. Was a not disgraced sixth at Kelso four weeks ago. One to watch.
