Verdict

ASHINGTON has yet to win a handicap over hurdles, but he produced his best effort when runner-up in this a year ago and this could be the time to catch him starting out for Brian Ellison. Christopher Wood and Dear Sire are feared most in a race that may be dominated by up-and-coming conditional riders.

  1. ASHINGTON
  2. CHRISTOPHER WOOD (IRE)
  3. DEAR SIRE (FR)
