Verdict

Burwood Breeze, Valleymore, Old Rolla, and Shoulton look the ones to concentrate on in this beginners chase and the vote goes to Burwood Breeze. The selection if from the in-form Tom George yard and and reproduction of his latest third behind Strong Magic would make him hard to beat as that form has since been franked. Valleymore rates the main danger on his best chase form notably his third behind Our Armageddon but he was let down by his jumping last time. Old Rolla is another that could go well on his latest third behind Strong Resolve but he has had plenty of chances so is passed over on this occasion. Shoulton is another that could go well but he is not the safest conveyance. So in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum we will side with Burwood Breeze.
