Ira Hayes
Almost certainly fortunate when winning Tramore beginners' chase (2m5f, good to yielding) in April, given he was in fourth (albeit close up) when the front three came to grief two out, but ran big race when clear second in Market Rasen handicap (3m, good) last month and features prominently in calculations here.

From the connections
“This is definitely his minimum trip, Ira Hayes wants further. The visor has sharpened him up and chasing will be his game. He'll be kept on the go and will stay 3m - John McConnell, trainer”
