Verdict

SWINGBRIDGE is a perfect three from three since joining this yard and will have a clear chance to enhance that record here. He won last time out off a mark of 107 over fences and now drops 8lb over the smaller obstacles (won over hurdles last month at Perth). Assuming he's still in the same mood, this looks a perfect chance to go in again. Uptake was on the mark at Down Royal last time and is respected under a penalty, with similar sentiments echoed for Meadow Cross while Better Back Bob and Brave Deed are also entitled to enter the conversation.
  1. Swingbridge
  2. Uptake
  3. Better Back Bob
