Verdict

This is a handicap hurdle that looks short on quality, and therefore it may not take too much winning despite the maximum field size. BILLY FLIGHT would have to overcome top weight to score here but has shown some ability in his four career starts so far with his handicap debut last time out being his best run to date. If coming on for that, he could be the one to beat here, ahead of Mischief Maisy, who now goes in a race that should be better suited to her, and Rebel Cry, who has thrived at this time of year in the past.
  1. Billy Flight
  2. Mischief Maisy
  3. Rebel Cry
