An open-looking maiden hurdle and in the hope he can settle early, DUNSTALL STAR is awarded the tentative vote having chased home a next-time out big improver at Warwick 4 weeks ago. Earnest Belief and Sword of Wessex are dangers, while Flat recruit Sheriff's Court could have a big say if seeing this out.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Dunstall Star might not get things all its own way near the head of affairs but shouldn’t be held back by that alone: Purple Owl might not benefit from being ridden as far back as usual for all the gallop is likely to be a reasonable one.
Individual Price Hint: Drombeg Lad traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 25% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 4 starts: Purple Owl traded at 25% or less of Betfair SP twice and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 3 of its last 5 starts.
