Verdict

Some decent hurdlers make their chasing debuts here in what is a good race for the time of the year and Duke Street and Matorico will at least keep WAIT FOR ME honest as he looks the best of that crew based on his hurdling form and this strong traveller is expected to fare well on his chasing debut. Most of the others look rather up against things with various negative points against them such as attitude in the case of Oscarteea and jumping alacrity with Mile House.
