Race preview

Respect is given to Haydock runner-up Hermes Du Gouet, who looks sure to pick up a bumper soon, but the same applies to the Nicky Henderson-trained PROPELLED, who went off a warm favourite on debut at Huntingdon. He had to settle for second behind Odin's Quest, but the experience should have brought him on and he can give his trainer another winner in this sphere. Copper Cove also showed up well on debut when filling the runner-up berth at Ffos Las and he merits respect too.
