Perth Silver Cup Handicap Chase (GBB Race)
Prediction Leader
Classic Maestro (IRE)
0%
Battled on well to win gruelling contest here (2m4f, good) in April; that form is treated with a degree of caution but he's only 2lb higher today and this shorter trip on forecast slower ground will suit.
Rest of field
Captain Cool (IRE)
0%
Launched chasing career with wins at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) and Plumpton (2m1f, good) last month, and also ran well when second over hurdles on Tuesday; evidently in very good nick but current chase mark asks a question of him, and today's forecast slower ground is probably not ideal.
Newtown Rambler (IRE)
0%
Bounced back to form with hurdle win in first-time cheekpieces/refitted tongue-tie in March, his second start for Adrian Keatley, and made all over C&D (good to soft) when back over fences last month; obvious contender.
Itwasfate (GB)
0%
Ex-Irish 9yo who is 1-5 in British points this year; ran out on latest appearance three weeks ago and it's hard to tell whether he can still be competitive off this sort of mark under rules.
Hypotenus (GB)
0%
Free-goer who often makes the running; well beaten when last of three on debut for Neil Mulholland in April but last month's third of seven behind Newtown Rambler over C&D (good to soft) was more encouraging, and he may yet have more to offer for his new stable.
Garde Des Champs (IRE)
0%
Has modest strike-rate (2-41 under all codes) and was behind Newtown Rambler and Hypotenus when fourth of seven over C&D good to soft) last month but is now 1lb lower than for last summer's convincing C&D (good) win, and can't be ruled out.
