Verdict
A winner on the Flat during the summer, MASTERDREAM returned to hurdling with a recent victory in a conditionals‘ race at Hereford and escapes a penalty. Smart Connection returned a shock 80/1 winner at Cartmel in August but Dynamic Kate won at Worcester in the same month and makes more appeal. Diamond Twin makes his handicap debut with a tongue-tie applied while High Grounds has form over these hurdles though is returning from a lengthy absence.
