Barrys Jack (1/1), Backinthesaddle (9/4), Hope's Wishes (7/2), Well Above Par (9/2), Monbeg Cave (14/1)

Verdict

A field of newcomers to fences under rules, with conditions likely to be plenty testing enough from which to be starting a new career chapter. Barrys Jack has proved relatively solid (without winning) since joining Brian Ellison, and he would've been the pick over an extra four furlongs. However, WELL ABOVE PAR has seemingly been bought with chasing in mind, and his efforts in maiden and novice hurdles at Ayr and Hexham suggest that he is capable of developing into a reasonable chaser over this trip when the ground conditions are riding deep.
  1. Well Above Par
  2. Barrys Jack
  3. Hope's Wishes
