We’re taking a chance of Blarney Bateleur to get back to winning ways in the finale here, following her respectable second over course-and-distance last time out.

Her best form seems to come when the ground is testing so the forecast makes positive reading and being a previous point-to-point winner, the step up to three miles is sure to suit.

Niall Houlihan is back in the saddle claiming 5lbs and this lightly raced 8-year-old looks sure to go close if repeating her previous exploits at Warwick from earlier this month.

I'm A Starman and Itsabouttime look her chief rivals.
