Verdict

This could be a good opportunity for NORDIC COMBINED to get off the mark over hurdles. The gelding sets the standard here and will be hard to master if taking a step forward. Colonel Mustard is the only previous winner in the race and has to be respected accordingly. His 6lb penalty makes life tough though. And a bigger threat may be posed by Milanstorm, who shaped as if he will appreciate a drop to this sort of trip last time out. Musical Slave has several entries this week and is another to monitor in the betting.
  1. Nordic Combined
  2. Milanstorm
  3. Colonel Custard
