Verdict

This may go to FLETCH, who has shown clear promise on both his hurdle starts in recent months and remains with potential. Elham Valley is the obvious threat on the pick of his form but disappointed again at Haydock on Saturday, with newcomer Gadjet d'Ainay clear pick of the rest in a thin race.
