Verdict

ITSHARD TO NO makes plenty of appeal here. He has always looked the sort to make a better chaser than hurdler and Kerry Lee will surely be trying her hardest race named after two of the yard's best horses. Swift Crusador arguably wants a longer trip than today's but the rain that threatens to come overnight would help his chance, and he can't be discounted. Air De Rock may go well but would be of more interest if Venetia Williams was amongst the winners lately.
