Verdict

The Hunter chase fans will have been burning the midnight oil on this and ASK AGAIN gets our recommendation over Oopsmylord and We're Confused. Sarah West has yet to win a race under rules with the ten-year-old but between the flags, the pair have been at the height of reliability. The latest victory being a three-length success at Chipley Park. Oopsmylord dotted up in a Bangor point-to-point by a dozen lengths so really couldn't be in better nick. We¿re Confused has the services of leading rider, Davy Mansell, in the saddle and did have Tommy Two Toes behind when the pair met at Chaddesley. Romper Stomper and Euryalus have exhibited form in points but are coming off the back of sizeable absences. Pristine Condition won what is likely to have been a very competitive event at Sheriff Hutton and confidence will be high with Ollie Greenall riding so well at present. Gentle George has questions to answer after being turned over at odds-on at Cottenham. Ask Again gets the nod.
