Verdict

A decent and interesting race of its type with a fair few looking to improve on what they have done so far and having the potential to do so. Old Harry Rocks and Peggies Venture faced one another last time out and it may well be the former who improves most for that experience over one who could probably do with a longer trip. Be Daring will also be expected to show a little more than his has so far and Rebel Collins is an interesting hurdling newcomer from the Mulholland yard that also run Parwich Lees. GIBSON PARK didn’t show much on his hurdling debut in Ireland but has now joined a top yard and the Skelton team have a good record of improving this sort.
  1. Gibson Park
