Verdict

A couple of these horses are probably more than capable of making a positive impression in this company, with the wind-operated upon World Premier noteworthy, along with the now hooded Nigel Twiston-Davies trained hurdles newcomer Locker Room Talk. Furthermore, Denmead can be expected to win a couple of modest hurdle races for Dan Skelton. However, with both Nylon Speed and TOTTERDOWN we sort of know what to expect. The selection was an emphatic C&D winner 12 days ago (for which he carries an additional penalty), but assuming that 5lb claimer Daniel Hiskett doesn't set absolutely blistering early fractions, he should follow up.
  1. Totterdown
  2. World Premier
  3. Nylon Speed
