Verdict

A trappy-looking contest to end proceedings, preference is for the relatively unexposed FRENCH CRUSADER, who was last seen finishing behind yesterday's impressive Christmas Hurdle winner Epatante. That form sets a considerable standard and he may be the pattern-race horse racing in a handicap. Elusive Belle was one place back in third in that respectable race and should give another bold account of herself with a mares allowance, while Chance A Tune and Golden Taipan remain incredibly unexposed and are weighted on nice handicap marks.
  1. French Crusader
