Verdict

This is a predictably tough handicap to solve, where Tigris River is of obvious interest on his form prior to slightly disappointing in the Greatwood Hurdle last time and should be able to do better here. However it may pay to side with an option further down the weights, and a chance is taken on WEST COAST TIME. Joseph O'Brien's charge obviously needs to bounce back from a 34L beating at Limerick last time, but the drop in trip should be exactly what he wants and on the basis of his maiden hurdle win at Gowran Park he should have more to offer. Top Othe Ra has been in excellent form recently and is another to consider, along with Meri Devie and Ben Dundee.
  1. West Coast Time
  2. Tigris River
  3. Top Othe Ra
