A very tricky to judge Handicap Hurdle rounds off the card and it's just LADY SAMBURY that appeals the most ahead of Dukeofchesterwood, and Zafferella. The selection won over course and distance in her first attempt stepping up to this trip last time out beating a number of re-opposing rivals. She'll carry an extra six pounds on her back this time but she is unexposed enough in this sphere to improve and she seems to hold the right cards according to the form lines. Dukeofchesterwood was just over two lengths back from the pick during that last contest and while he should be closer on a three pounds swing of terms he looks to be just short again. Almond Court was back in third behind the selection on there last meeting and again the handicapper hasn't been too kind. She does though have some good form behind the useful Elzahann earlier in the season which would have her close if reproducing that. Zaferella is running well as demonstrated by her win against her own sex last time. That said she looks to have plenty to do here over this trip with extra weight on her back. Not the easiest conundrum to solve but when we unscrambled it we found Lady Sambury as the winner.
