Verdict

The form standard is set by Onthefrontfoot but as with his last race he’s likely to be anchored by his double penalty against some useful types and his future will lie in handicaps as this scenario makes him look vulnerable. OLLY THE BRAVE showed plenty of ability in his bumper days and made a very eye-catching hurdling debut last month behind one who had defeated him in a bumper, only ridden with hand-and-heels he gets the nod here. Perfect Predator and Avoid De Master are two hurdling newcomers of note but the most interesting of that group would be the useful Flat handicapper Winds Of Fire although his yard could be in better form.
  1. Olly The Brave
  2. Perfect Predator
  3. Winds Of Fire
