Verdict

This could be a really informative little event and there should be some clues to be taken from it. A few of these were useful on the Flat and FORGOTTEN HERO was one of them - he can put his hurdles experience to use here and get his head in front. Mcgroarty has attracted money on both his starts for Dr Newland and should continue to improve after his win last time out. Jacobite Rising is another going the right way and can take a prize home.
