Verdict

Those with form whether it on the level or over hurdles are not compelling so Gordon Elliott's newcomer LOAD UP TIME is chanced given that the vast majority from his yard achieve at least a level good enough to win races like this. Comfortably the best recent form comes from Jake Peter and he should convert that to hurdles now after wins over 1m4f and 2m recently on the level. Janeymac finished fourth in her first race over hurdles and that form gives her realistic claims in this race lacking strength in depth.
