Verdict

Only two runners go to post for this event, and Trusting Paddy is the narrow preference over Stocks 'n Shares. The selection has been far from convincing so far over hurdles but has shown enough to make him interesting on his chasing debut. He was pulled up last time at Ludlow behind Musally but had shown fair form prior to that and is not faced with stiff competition here. Stocks 'n Shares won a selling hurdle event at Hereford, only to be disqualified, so has shown signs of ability. However, he was well beaten behind Iorana at Hereford last time and is not one to place a great deal of faith in. This is a race low on numbers and quality, but Trusting Paddy gets the tentative vote.
