Has impressed over fences this summer, making 3 wins from 4 starts in 4-runner handicap at Cartmel (21.2f) 31 days ago. Capable of better still, so looks an obvious player.

Firmly back on the up when opening chase account here in May and creditable second (albeit 17 lengths back) to Some Day Soon over C&D 21 days ago. Unlikely to turn the tables.

2/1
Useful hurdler who took a liking to chasing at the first attempt when scoring readily (already in control when left clear at the last) over C&D 3 weeks ago. Obvious claims on the back of that.

Talented hurdler who opened his account over the larger obstacles at the second attempt in a Worcester novice in May, and was running well when falling in a novice at Newton Abbot next time. Respected

Forecasts

Presentandcounting (11/8), Some Day Soon (2/1), Eglantine Du Seuil (10/3), Forecast (10/1)

16:17 Stratford - 19 August 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

PRESENTANDCOUNTING has to give weight away all round but his impressive jumping is likely to put pressure on his less efficient rivals and he's likely to prove hard to pass in front. Some Day Soon is a danger after a ready C&D success, while Eglantine du Seuil also has more to offer as a chaser, so it should be a fascinating contest.

  3. EGLANTINE DU SEUIL (FR)
