Verdict

A lot of dead wood in this handicap hurdle and nothing would surprise, but a chance is taken that BROTHER BENNETT can build on a fair effort last time and reverse places with Golden Cannon on ground that should suit much better. Seaweed is one capable of being in the shake-up if things fall right for hime, while Highway Star is another who may be thereabouts although he isn't the strongest of finishers. Worth keeping an eye out for both Cassievallaunus and Generous Jack who would both have a proper chance if fit and well.
  1. Brother Bennett
  2. Seaweed
  3. Cassivellaunus
