Verdict

Just Beware finally got off the mark last time out and should be feared with that confidence boost under the belt, however Bathwick Breeze is unexposed and is given the vote ahead of Green Day Packer and Thehonourablelady. David Pipe's gelding was no great shakes on the flat but he has made up into a useful hurdler and having proven his effectiveness on varying surfaces, he should go well here although it is fair to assume that he may not get his own way in front. Dream On Dreamers is another three-year-old who has claims, having shown ability in three starts to date, whilst Green Day Packer needs a check in the betting coming from a shrewd stable. Westgate has claims on the pick of his runs but is ultimately yet to win and top-weight is a big burden. Just Beware came good last time out but there is no guarantees that the head will be in front on the line again, whilst Thehonourablelady has winning form at the track and should go well. Yellow Flag drops in trip which looks a good move given his style of running and with the services of AP McCoy, he should run well. At a price Wavertree One Off may sneak into a place, however Bathwick Breeze is taken to follow up his recent Uttoxeter win.
