Verdict

FLASHJACK was a winner last time out and he can follow-up that victory with success in this eight runner staying handicap hurdle. The selection has underfoot conditions to suit and he can get the better of Samson's Reach who receives weight from all of his rivals. Looks Like Power ran well in defeat at Ascot last time out and he can take third.
  1. Flashjack
  2. Samson's Reach
  3. Looks Like Power
