Verdict

Plenty of course form on offer, but a largely unconvincing collection of participants, so in all probability, this is a race which could take relatively little winning. That said; proven stamina is a pre-requisite, which might just find out the unexposed (in handicaps) Mr Fenton. Tangolan is well treated over hurdles based upon his fast rising chasing mark, and given his preference for Perth, he could well prove suited by this broadly similar flat track, whilst Dreamsoftheatre is fully capable if in the mood. However, the safest option is the most obvious one, and with ground conditions ideal, recent 3m Southwell novices hurdle winner AIR SQUADRON is the pick on his handicap debut.
  1. Air Squadron
  2. Tangolan
  3. Royale Django
