Verdict

ARCHIE GUNN makes his chasing debut here in unusual circumstances and is a hopeful choice. A mark of 105 has been awarded to him based on his hurdles form and while it is asking quite a bit for a chasing debutant to win in a field packed with experienced sorts, he has the size and scope to make a smart chaser and judging by his exuberant jumping on his return from his summer break last time, he has been well schooled for today's assignment. My Condor is consistent but looks a short finisher as he travels strongly in his races while Young Tot has aroused suspicions with regard to his resolution having thrown away what appeared racing winning opportunities in the past. He is a maiden after 22 starts over fences. Cheekpieces looked to have the desired effect on King Diamond last time and blinkers are now on while towards the foot of the weights Wild Power could reward those seeking some value. A competitive handicap chase and Archie Gunn gets the vote.
