Best Flight gets the confident vote with Rogues Gallery and Allez Scotia rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair sort on the flat at his best and put up a pleasing run on his hurdling debut when second behind Beauchamp Gigi. He is sure to have learnt for the experience and with improvement likely he will be hard to beat. Rogues Gallery rates the main danger on his latest second behind Blue Buster in a bumper and he is sure to have been well schooled for this his hurdling debut. However he has looked very one paced at the end of his races and may be seen to better effect over a longer trip on a stiffer track so he is passed over on this occasion. Allez Scotia is another worthy of respect he is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he has had plenty of chances without taking one and again a place looks the best he can hope for. Of the remainder Dolmur is from a yard that continues in top form and is another to note in the market but for the winner we return to Best Flight who looks sure to improve.
