Verdict

A relatively moderate event in which it's tough to build a cast iron solid case for any of the runners. Richard Johnson is in demand as Paul Webber tries valiantly to convince Copperfacejack to shed the maiden tag at the 21st attempt, whilst Mount Oliver should be monitored for market support on debut for Neil Mulholland. However, whilst clearly a risky proposition over fences, the undeniably well treated FLED OR PLED is taken to maintain his love affair with Towcester. He was 2 from 2 here over hurdles and has the services of Brian Hughes in the saddle.
  1. Fled Or Pled
  2. Copperfacejack
  3. Mount Oliver
