Paul Nicholls doesn¿t send out to many runners over the summer season but he should have a winner here in SIZING ASIA, who is taken to land this Maiden Hurdle ahead of Right Option and Penyfawn Dawn. A switch to the champion trainer¿s yard seemed to work the oracle for the pick who showed a vast improvement on his Irish form when stepping up to this trip here on his last start. He only found the short priced favourite too good that day and should go one better with his powerful yard having more time with him. Right Option has been knocking on the door in recent starts and easily beat home a subsequent winner on his latest placed performance. On that form he's closely matched with the selection but might be vulnerable with improvement expected from his rival. Penyfawn Dawn needs to be respected with his yard in good form and a progressive profile this season while Heathfield Flyer has had his problems in the past but looks near his best again now. This may not be as straight forward as it first appears but Sizing Asia should build on his last effort and score.
