FormscanBy Michael Graham - ONLYAMATTEROFTIME has been contesting very valuable handicap hurdles in Britain without any joy, but should appreciate these calmer waters. Brian Hayes will have to keep his wits about him, though, as he has run out in two of his last four races. Epson Du Houx catches the eye reverting to hurdling off a 26lb lower mark than his chase rating. Furthermore, Carl Millar lessens his burden by 7lb. The concern would be the trip, but this is a sharp track and it could reinvigorate him after failing to trouble the judge in his last five appearances. West Away unseated in Down Royal, but has form in the book to make him a player while Natural Breeze is the lowest-rated horse in the field, but is a consistent sort.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards (116 = 12st)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
