Warren Greatrex doesn’t run many here so SPEEDY CARGO’s presence is significant. He’s never won but has placed over hurdles and fences and in points and this would not be the strongest of contests. Mamoo has won four times over hurdles, including twice last season. He must have a decent chance if taking to the larger obstacles but Hidden Cargo’s limitations have already been exposed. Whateva Next has been lightly raced and was staying on here last time so is also worth considering.
