Verdict

COMMODORE BARRY is fast establishing himself a smart staying novice hurdler and Kim Bailey's improver can continue his unbeaten record over 3m by landing this small but competitive Grade Two contest. Truckers Lodge is official top-rated so must have a chance at level weights and Paul Nicholls' runner like the selection is a stayer going in the right direction. Ballarico won well latest and his trainer has his string in terrific form.
  1. Commodore Barry
  2. Truckers Lodge
  3. Bailarico
