Verdict
Halling's Wish won on the Flat last month but was soon beaten off today's mark over 2m4f here subsequently. He's probably worth taking on again as Pure Style wasn't disgraced at Worcester last time. Bohemian Rhapsody isn't out of this either if you ignore his latest run over an extra half-mile at Newton Abbot but this is a big step up in grade for recent course winner Lightentertainment and Moorlands Mist is probably best watched after a lay-off. KUDA HURAA hasn't won for a while but was only beaten a neck off a 3lb higher mark at Newbury in March and his latest fourth at Stratford came in a better race than this.
