A very busy Friday and here are the thoughts of our Long Shot tipster.

Mirabad had some pretty decent form to his name when trained on the flat in France and achieved an official rating of 94 in that sphere. He has taken a little time to peak for current connections over hurdles but looks to be a horse that could well progress in handicaps this season. He finished 2nd on his return to action this season and that was his first run after wind surgery so he may have perhaps needed it. He made no mistake next time out winning at Hereford by 18 lengths and although the form might not be too strong, the manner of the victory suggested he is well worth a try in today's better class. Mirabad rates a 4 star each way Pick.
