Verdict

Australia Day won over fences at this meeting 12 months ago and will ensure there is no hanging about in this. That should suit Get Me Out Of Here, who needs s strong pace to be effective over 2m, But Jonjo O'Neill's gelding was receiving plenty of weight when finishing ahead of BRAMPOUR in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury in February and the Nicholls' entry, last seen finishing seventh in the Champion Hurdle, won on his reappearance last season. He gets a narrow vote with Alsadaa and First Avenue both having plenty to find at the weights.
