Verdict

If SAMBULANDO doesn't win this novice hurdle and win it well something would have gone seriously wrong leaving Shahramore and My Noble Lord best placed to pick up the minor scraps. Rated at 123 the selection is by far the highest in this and destroyed a maiden field last time to the tune of 13 lengths. To be fair he didn't have much to beat that day, though the same could be said for this contest, but his performance on his penultimate start when only finding the smart Thumbs Up too good rates as really strong form. Shahramore is yet to receive an official mark but based on his last run would probably be 105 at best giving him plenty to find on the selection but would have him prominently placed for the minor prizes. My Noble Lord looks best of the rest.
