Verdict

ST JOHN'S showed up well on heavy going last time out and he is taken to return to the winners enclosure in this handicap hurdle. The selection can get the better of Sarpech who carries top weight on debut for a new stable while third place can go to Flanagans Field who can bounce back from a disappointing effort last time.
  1. St John's
  2. Sarpech
  3. Flanagans Field
