Verdict

A chance is taken on the unexposed OAKLEY for Philip Hobbs who won nicely at Ludlow last time out in novice company and the decision to switch to a handicap can pay dividends for the prolific Minehead trainer. Eddiemaurice enjoys it here as shown in his recent C&D win so he is certainly a live contender. Speed Company is now running well and remains relatively unexposed over hurdles.
