Verdict

Houseparty, Wizard of Edge and Precious Lucy are three against the field in a wide-open novices hurdle and the vote goes to Wizard Of Edge. The selection won well last time out when defeating Jug Of Punch and although he is giving weight away all round he will be hard to beat under conditions that suit. House Party rates the main danger he ran well last time out when second behind Whispered Secret and this looks easier and he will not be far away especially as he is receiving weight from the selection. Precious Lucy is another that could go well she won well last time out when defeating Red Dahlia but this looks tougher and for that reason she is opposed. Of the remainder Gin 'n' Fonic and Sham Sharif are from shrewd yards and are worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Wizard of Edge .
