FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - SHANTOU LUCKY got in as a reserve to a May Bank Holiday Monday Down Royal handicap hurdle recently, and proceeded to land a gamble. The chestnut is only a four-year-old yet, and there could be more to come from him off a six pound higher mark. Going up in trip is probably going to be good for Gavin Cromwell’s youngster, and Jonathan Moore’s mount will likely take a fair bit of beating. Sky Tenor is a horse that should have a handicap or two in him and it’ll be no surprise if he runs into the placings here with first-time cheek-pieces deployed. The grey might ideally prefer further. On debut for Sonny Carey An Droichead Eile is another to keep an eye on.
