Verdict

Like the previous race this is a novice hurdle where the previous winners look like the pair to focus on despite the penalties they carry. STRADIVARIUS DAVIS took a big step forward to get off the mark in good style at Wincanton last time out, and even with the extra weight could prove too good for the best of these. He can see off fellow winner The Bottom Bar, who looks the main danger, while Athreeothree could be third best.
  1. Stradivarius Davis
  2. The Bottom Bar
