Verdict

An unappealing maiden hurdle in which approximately 75% of the field can be confidently dismissed with a number of trainers holding multiple entries. Of those with previous UK hurdles form both Rukwa and Lord Roccoco have shown more than enough ability to suggest that a race of this nature is well within their comfort zone. Meanwhile, Youracert is a mildly interesting recruit from the Irish PTP scene for Donald McCain but the selection is the French recruit BOLTISSIME for the Worcestershire-based Grand National winning trainer Dr Richard Newland.
