Verdict

It could pay to stick with DENTLEY DE MEE in this. A maiden hurdle winner at Taunton recently, there should be more to come from Nick Williams’ charge now handicapping for the first time. Bambi Du Noyer remains 9lb higher than when scoring at Exeter last month and this is tougher than the selling hurdle won by Scales at Newton Abbot recently. Number One London was placed yet again at Carlisle on his latest start and has gone up 10lb without winning since September but Galactic Power may finish closer back on a quicker surface today.
