Verdict

CUDGEL has won off this mark over hurdles so is worth another chance in this sphere having unseated early at Musselburgh. Road Warrior has been knocking on the door this winter and should go well again, while Luca Brasi's Boy makes most appeal of the chasing debutants having showed much-improved form at Catterick.

  1. CUDGEL
  2. ROAD WARRIOR
  3. LUCA BRASI'S BOY (IRE)
