    Verdict

    Bauhaus gets the vote in this novices hurdle with No Regrets and Stagecoach Amber rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Meadow Hawk in a handicap, this looks easier and despite his penalty he is hard to oppose. No Regrets rates the main danger as he also won well last time out when beating White Gate but this looks tougher and his overall profile leaves him with a little to find. Stagecoach Amber showed improved form when fourth behind Pidgeon Island last time and with his yard in form he has definite place claims but the suspicion is he will be seen to even better effect over a longer trip. Of the remainder Ashford Castle is from a yard that like a tilt and the ring and should be watched in the market but Bauhaus sets a fair standard and he will be hard to beat.
