Verdict
A real toughie for punters here and we will tentatively side with Prime Bere to fend off the challenge of Gary Moore's two runners Wingman and Tamreen. The selection was pretty disappointing last time out when not seeing out a longer trip on heavy ground. Therein lies the clue that today's drop in trip and quicker conditions should see him go very well in what looks an open contest. The stable had a double on Sunday and will be looking to continue that momentum. Wingman came good last time out when winning a weak maiden hurdle at Plumpton, and looks up against it here off a mark of 114 and on ground that could be quicker than ideal. Stablemate Tamreen is starting to inch down the weights having struggled for some time and should put up an improved show here, whilst Beauchamp Star should go well if jumping more fluently. Love Angel warrants respect as a course and distance winner however we will return to Prime Bere as the selection.
