Tracked leaders, mistake 5th, soon lost place but stayed in touch, closed before 3 out, 2nd from next, led last, stayed on well to draw clear flat op 13/8
Smarty Wild (9/4), Midnight Midge (3/1), Mere Anarchy (5/1), The Kings Baby (5/1), Field Exhibition (6/1), Karakoram (9/1)
A chance is taken on unexposed SMARTY WILD who has made a positive impression in two hurdle races to date particularly when winning at Ludlow last time out. Prolific Field Exhibition arguably prefers farther but she is still not to be taken lightly here. Midnight Midge needs more but is still in the early stages of his hurdles career.
