1	Has made a solid start in hunters, winning at Warwick and Taunton and placed in the big one at Cheltenham in March. Didn't seem to take to Aintree last month and this is much easier. Concedes plenty of weight but his claims are obvious down markedly in grade. 1st Pick 1 Golden Son (Fr) Jockey: Miss Olive Nicholls Trainer: Paul Nicholls J: Miss Olive Nicholls T: Paul Nicholls	100	-	-	-	56%	4/5

5	Half-sister to useful hurdle/smart chase winner Earth Moor. Won twice in Irish points then walked over in April (every chance when slipped up in 4-runner race last time).
