Verdict

A three-time winner in C&D juvenile hurdles last winter, FIVEANDTWENTY hasn't scaled the same heights since, yet her mark reflects that, and with a run under her belt on the back of a wind op last month, she could well be ready to strike. Handicap-debutant Socialist Agenda is also worth a look, whilst Wild Max may well bounce back returned to hurdling on the back of a disappointing chase effort.
