FormscanBy Tom Weekes - HEWICK caused a surprise to win at Kilbeggan recently and could follow up here. His form was just ordinary prior to his Kilbeggan win but that win was gained as he was upped to a staying trip for the first time since his point-to-point days. He has been raised 8lbs for the win and meets the runner-up then Trouble And Strife 6lbs worse off but could continue to progress a little more. The step up in trip also seemed to benefit Trouble And Strife at Kilbeggan (being a proven flat stayer) and she should run a solid race today. I Will Walk was sixth in that Kilbeggan race but had at least run two solid races in similar handicaps and has some place claims.
