Verdict

ENNISCOFFEY OSCAR hasn’t fulfilled his potential over hurdles so far but was better last time at Kempton and has probably done enough to justify one more chance getting weight from the previous winners. Talkischeap beat a decent sort at Warwick in May after winning a Fontwell maiden and has more to offer. Dandy Dan beat an odds-on favourite at Ludlow on his hurdling debut and is also a useful recruit. My Charity’s second at Worcester in October has been franked but he’ll need to take another step forward to go one better here. Captain Peacock and Bangor fourth Bardista look the pick of the remainder.
