Verdict

This may well be the day when BILLY THE SQUID sheds his maiden tag over hurdles, having shaped as though the step up to this trip would serve him well when placed off similar marks at Southwell and Ffos Las on his last 2 starts. Balranald will be a threat if responding well to the fitting of cheekpieces on debut for new yard, while Wise Coco should also have a part to play.
