Verdict

A chance is taken on the fitness of BURROWS EDGE for champion trainer Nicky Henderson despite this being his first race of the season. He concluded a good novice season with an eye-catching staying on sixth in a valuable series final at Sandown, a run since franked several times and he looked one to follow when upped in trip there. Among the dangers Not That Fuisse remains progressive and could find more for this slightly longer trip and Erick Le Rouge can't be ruled out as he bids for a four-time after C&D success last time out.
  1. Burrows Edge
  2. Not That Fuisse
