Verdict

This isn’t a deep contest by any means and it should give SIMPLY THE BETTS a chance to get off the mark now he’s given a shot at a more realistic level having last been seen running in the Supreme at Cheltenham. Amoola Gold emanates from a stable going well and this is a reasonable level for her to start her hurdling career in having been highly tried in an Aintree bumper last time. Most of the others are fairly ordinary with the Mullins reject On Raglan Road having plenty to prove and with the Hobbs team getting back on track it could mean that there is more to come from Gaucho Gil who has been below-par so far.
