Verdict

BRAWLER has yet to win over fences but has been runner-up four times including in a Grade B handicap on this track, form that may be good enough for this. Forrard Away was left clear at the last when making a winning debut over fences at Ballinrobe though has an absence to overcome. Stand Off won a novices' handicap hurdle here in April and makes his chasing debut but Cerberus has been disappointing over fences so far. Stansfield has run poorly since returning from a break. Low Lie The Fields is bred for chasing so winning twice over timber was a bonus.
