      Verdict

      A wide open bumper here and as usual in these types of races the market will be all important but the principals look to be Ship's Hill , Wantage Road and Ornoir and the vote is given to Ship's Hill. The selection hails from a yard that does well in this type of event and this Oscar gelding out of a moderate jumper will not need to be anything special to win this. Wantage Road rates the main danger as he is a Pistolet Bleu gelding out of flat and hurdles winner Glowing Lines and as he is a stablemate of the selection he should be noted in the market. Ornoir is from, a shrewd French yard and is another that should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Crashtown Hall is a Saddlers' Hall horse out of Crashtown Lucy, half brother to two bumper winners and winning chaser Jodante and is another that could go well but in a race where there is very little public form to go on and were the market will be all important for thew winner we return to Ship;s Hill.
