Race Tip

ROAD TO WEMBLEY (5) made steady progress delivering a more than satisfactory hurdle and stable debut when runner up at Warwick start of March. Only beaten 1. 25L on that occasion and now finds a realistic opportunity to get off the mark in his new discipline. TOP COEUR (6) provided fair form on three starts in Ireland. Uninspiring when debuting for this stable at Hereford a fortnight ago and needs to raise his game. Could improve to set the standard. CORSICAN CAPER (1) will be tackling handicaps in the future which may prove easier. NOVELISTA (7) was well held on hurdle debut at Ascot attempting a much better race than this. One to watch.
