Verdict

KIWI DE COTTE shaped well before a calamitous late error in a hunter chase at Wexford on last month's Rules debut and looks very interesting now switching to hurdling having joined Dan Skelton. Royal Rocket and Getaway Vic are obvious threats.

5	Didn't last out on sole outing in bumpers but left hurdling debut form behind when third of 7 in 19f novice (22/1) at Taunton (good) in April. Unlucky to bump into one at Warwick since and must enter calculations back up in trip. 2nd Pick 5 Royal Rocket (Ire) Jockey: Harry Cobden Trainer: Emma Lavelle J: Harry Cobden T: Emma Lavelle	96	-	-	-	25%

1	Irish point winner who looked a good prospect in landing 2 of his 3 starts in bumpers. Hasn't quite achieved the same heights in 2 runs over hurdles this spring but ran into an improver from a top yard in first-time cheekpieces (left off here) at Cartmel latest and ought to be bang there. 3rd Pick 1 Getaway Vic (Ire) Jockey: James Bowen Trainer: Mickey Bowen J: James Bowen T: Mickey Bowen	100	-	-	-	56%
