Verdict

Not an awful lot of strength in depth in this novices’ hurdle but two nice prospects take each other on with course winner INDURO getting a narrow vote. He won well here last time beating a better fancied rival and looks as though he will appreciate this step up in trip with the Pipe yard 2-4 here in novice hurdles in the last five years. Main rival O’Hanrahan Bridge sets a decent standard on his C&D second here last month after a long absence, he may still need this experience. Evander has shown ability over hurdles and deserves consideration with Cyrus Keep capable of a better display on his hurdling debut with his yard in good form.
  1. Induno
  2. Evander
  3. O'Hanrahan Bridge
