Race preview
Although she proved no match for an odds-on winner at Stratford recently, LASTING LOVE offered plenty of encouragement. Today's contest looks ripe for the taking and the four-year-old could take all the catching if adopting front-running tactics once more. Hurdles debutant Taktique Gagnante was somewhat underwhelming when finishing down the field in a class 2 bumper for mares at Cheltenham last month, but she warrants respect if judged on her penultimate third at Cork. Global Hideaway appears best of the remainder.
