Bomber Command (4/6), Major Davis (5/4), Nampararoo (9/2), Truckers Tangle (12/1), Sam's A Diamond (33/1), Lonely Soldier (66/1)

Verdict

Little in the way of strength in depth in this opening maiden hurdle, with an unknown former Point-to-Point racer in the shape of Truckers Tangle to muddy the waters. However, BOMBER COMMAND has some sound enough recent form, including at this level over C&D to make him the pick for Tom George and Adrian Heskin.
  1. Bomber Command
  2. Major Davis
  3. Nampararoo
