Verdict

An interesting contest. The Hollow Ginge is a proven mudlark who was never stronger than at the finish when making a winning chasing debut at Worcester (2m7f) four weeks ago, yet the handicapper sets him his sternest test yet (hurdles or fences) from a revised mark of 137. Meanwhile, Jonjo O'Neill's Django Django (Bryony Frost aboard) should progress from his creditable third to Erick Le Rouge at Uttoxeter three weeks ago, also appreciating today's extra yardage. However, the frankly fascinating contender is the Irish raider PLAN OF ATTACK who displayed a real aptitude for larger obstacles during the summer months, and helpfully also won his point on soft ground.
