Verdict

A few in with a shout but the vote goes to HARDY FELLA, who was unable to live with Norley (easy winner again over fences since) on handicap debut at this track just over 3 weeks ago but looks to have been found a good opportunity to open his account over hurdles. Ballycamus won well at Newbury last month so he heads up the dangers, ahead of Egbert, who may well relish this step up to 3m.

  1. HARDY FELLA (IRE)
  2. BALLYCAMUS (IRE)
  3. EGBERT
