Verdict

Quite a competitive handicap hurdle and there are a few options here with Along Came Theo looking to try and end his run of seconds although his finishing effort when presented with a race at Wetherby was poor. Rainy Day Dylan will be dangerous if he gets a soft lead but JUST SO COOL looks the one to side with here even his defeat last time out reads well in this company with his stable having a fine season. Brynmawr now dons the cheekpieces for the first time and may well step up on his earlier handicap run. Perhaps the most interesting runner outside of the market leaders is Frankly Speaking who makes his handicap debut with the shorter trip looking to suit especially if he settles better on this occasion.
  1. Just So Cool
  2. Brynmawr
  3. Frankly Speaking
