Race Tip

Numerous top stables are represented in a competitive race. WYRLEY BIRCH (8) holds most appeal on paper being a half-brother to top level chaser Edwardstone. Will be worth paying to see how he gets on. PRESLEY (6) finished third beaten 2. 25L on racecourse debut in December. Disappointed as favourite that day however may put that experience to good use here. Shortlist. JETAWAY HOLIDAY (4) found success by 11L attempting a 2m4f point to point race last May. Provides initial outing for useful connections and likely to go close. MERRY AWAY (5) and PRIDE HILL (7) are other rules debutantes who are worthy of consideration in this open contest.
