Wind Your Neck In
13/2
SCAIRP DUBH showed promise when supported at long odds to finish fourth at Newcastle and he can get off the mark on just his third start in a handicap. Parish Star has won her last two handicap hurdles since joining her current yard and could make a bold bid for the hat-trick despite an 8 lb rise. Wind Your Neck In can be more competitive if settling better, while Tech That would be interesting if first-time headgear has the desired effect.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: The pace doesn’t look like being overly strong here and Tech That should still be served best by being ridden prominently: Despite a suspicion the pace will be sound, those held up such as Parish Star usually is are still likely to have their work cut out.
Individual Price Hint: Parish Star traded at more than 10 times Betfair SP and 2 times Betfair SP when winning on 2 of its last 5 starts: Gold Ring traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 4 starts.
