Race preview

TEMPLEPARK, who has been in top form over hurdles this summer, reverted to fences in style at Warwick, notching up a comfortable victory. An 8lb rise leaves him with a career-high mark to contend with, but it would be foolish to rule out another bold showing from the thriving seven-year-old considering the fine form of the Fergal O'Brien stable. Coup De Pinceau took advantage of a lenient rating when scoring at Perth and the C&D winner is respected for a top operation. For Good Measure bumped into a good winner when second off this figure at Newton Abbot, while Bigmartre has dropped back to his last winning figure, with conditional Jamie Neild removing a further 10lb.
