Verdict

Nicky Henderson's COUNTISTER was having her first start since Cheltenham last year when an excellent third to Ch'tibello in the County Hurdle last month. She can start making up for lost time though the winner's yard is represented by Denmead, an impressive winner at Wetherby. Ivanovich Gorbatov bounced back to form when a close third to Off You Go in the Ladbroke though he was behind runner-up Jezki, who may not be the force of old but is still capable of a big run in handicaps. Ruby has chosen Mr Adjudicator as he was returning from a break when behind the selection at Cheltenham - his superb novice form would put him right in the picture. Ask Susan is having her first start for the yard and has been chasing but Tudor City can usually be relied up to run well at this sort of level.
