Say You Say Me is interesting making her first start over hurdles after two good runs in bumpers, but her stablemate DAME PRESTIGE will likely be a tough nut to crack. She was a good third on her first run over obstacles here last month and if hurdling with more fluency today, she could take some stopping. Simple Star made a pleasing start over hurdles when second here last month and should go well again.
Prediction : 1st Dame Prestige 2nd Say You Say Me 3rd Simple Star

STATUARIO ran a cracker when third in the Summer Plate at Market Rasen last month and off the same mark here, he looks the one to side with. Quantum Realm can't be ruled out going for the hat-trick, following his victory at Downpatrick with another here last time off 5lb lower, while the veteran And The New is showing no signs of stopping and must be considered after a good second off this mark here last month.
Prediction : 1st Statuario 2nd Quantum Realm 3rd And The New

15:05 Perth

A ferociously competitive handicap to try and solve here, but KAJAKI looks interesting on some of his best efforts and, although he disappointed when last seen finishing fourth here in May, this looks a weaker race and he could go well at a nice price with Conor Rabbitt taking off a valuable 10lb. Finisk River just held on at Bangor last time, though a 4lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold showing, while the lightly-raced Copperwell could get involved for the Gordon Elliott yard.
Prediction : 1st Kajaki 2nd Finisk River 3rd Copperwell

Gordon Elliott and Sean Bowen have been firing in the winners on a regular basis throughout the season here and this looks another good opportunity for them with GETAWAY GOLDIE, who did well to finish second over C&D latest, not jumping with much fluency, and is tipped to go one better this time around. Friary Rock looks the biggest danger having won easy enough over half a mile shorter here last time. This extra distance wont be an issue for him, while Castletown is a consistent sort who looks sure to give another good account of himself.
Prediction : 1st Getaway Goldie 2nd Friary Rock 3rd Castletown

There wasn't much between Wolf Prince and GALATA BRIDGE in the Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen last month and with the latter now 2lb better off, he gets the nod in what looks a competitive affair. The Dr Richard Newland-trained five-year-old had been an impressive winner at Huntingdon prior to that and may still be well treated. Britzka must be respected for top connections having been an impressive winner over C&D last time, although an 8lb rise tempers enthusiasm. Although Lady Reset is running from 2lb out of the handicap, she's a likeable sort and enters calculations.
Prediction : 1st Galata Bridge 2nd Britzka 3rd Lady Reset

16:50 Perth

LAKE SHORE DRIVE scored by three-quarters of a length over C&D last time and, with conditions set to suit again, another bold bid is expected. Laura Morgan's 10-year-old won more cosily than the winning distance suggests and the 4lb he has been raised by the handicapper may not be enough to stop him from getting his head in front again. The Rutland Rebel is also a last-time-out winner, scoring by a short-head over 2m4f at this venue, but the 5lb rise in the weights leaves him susceptible to other rivals. Golden Chancer is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Lake Shore Drive 2nd The Rutland Rebel 3rd Golden Chancer

17:25 Perth

ILLUSION OF TIME arrives here seeking a hat-trick, following a one and a half length success over C&D last time, and this looks a decent opportunity of continuing his sequence of victories. Champion jockey Brian Hughes takes the ride once again after the pair teamed up well last time. Gordon Elliott saddles two runners in this contest and it seems like Finnthemagician is the more likelier of the pair to be thereabouts, and thus commands respect. Stablemate Great Schema looks next best.
Prediction : 1st Illusion Of Time 2nd Finnthemagician 3rd Great Schema
