Verdict

YOURHOLIDAYISOVER finished runner-up over fences here last time ouot and can go one better returning to hurdles here. Tom Gretton's gelding should appreciate the forecast underfoot conditions and is taken to get the better of last time out winner Ange Des Malberaux who was successful at the last meeting here while Mash Potato, a fair fifth last time out can finish third in this.
  1. Yourholidayisover
  2. Ange Des Malberaux
  3. Mash Potato
