Verdict

NIBBLERS CHARM is currently quite the progressive type and his trainer looks to have found a decent opportunity against rivals who are mainly poorly handicapped: The gelding needs to improve again himself but the manner of his last win suggests he could be up to the task. Watch out for any market moves for Caer on her handicap debut; she has generally been in good form and may have got in on a reasonable mark. Allez Kal has been campaigned mainly on the Flat of late but her most recent hurdle form would see her capable of winning this type of contest. It is hard to rule out the consistent Bothar Dubh but there may be doubts off his current mark.
  1. Nibblers Charm
  2. Bothar Dubh
  3. Caer
