Verdict

An intriguing handicap hurdle in which Informateur returns to the scene of his success here two starts ago. He has since gone close in a competitive event at Haydock, and is greatly feared as he bids to regain the winning thread. He is yet to show his best form, but No Rematch is surely capable of better than he has shown so far judged on his novice form. Aliandy is another name to note after he posted an eye-catching effort when runner-up on his seasonal reappearance. However, KEEP WONDERING is a strong selection to make a winning handicap debut. He drops back in trip after being outstayed at Haydock last time and can make it third time lucky over hurdles.
  1. Keep Wondering
  2. Aliandy
  3. Informateur
