Verdict

Not the easiest race to assess, which basically boils down to an interpretation of the worth of the opening juvenile hurdle of the season at Hexham when considering those with hurdles experience. There's no reason why Enforcement or Jaycols Star will improve past Weinburg, but on balance that looked a particularly weak race. Chief Justice has his issues and couldn't be advised until the race is well underway, so the vote goes to the Alan King-trained debutante CRACKER FACTORY.
  1. Cracker Factory
  2. Weinberg
