Race Tip

In receipt of a handy age allowance TALAKAN (11) can get off the mark at the third attempt. Third behind a useful rival on hurdling debut before beaten a neck at Ludlow latest. Now against his elders but the one to beat. GREAT FLEET (1) dropped out in a hot handicap last time but previously made all the running to land a Kelso maiden. May try to repeat similar tactics here. Top contender. WILSTAR (2) bids to follow up a success in maiden company last month. Top jockey returns to the saddle. On the shortlist. LEGAL WEAPON (5) has found the frame on all four hurdling starts and may have to settle for minor money again.
