Verdict
SILVER DRAGON is among a number of horses doubly engaged today but he would probably have a better chance in this rather than a race at Wetherby so gets the nod. The opposition is decidedly moderate with Airmen's Friend better over fences and on faster going. Crookstown has shown little since winning a maiden hurdle at Perth in the summer while Combustible Kate and Exit To Freedom have had plenty of chances. Plumpton fifth Conigre is also thoroughly exposed.
