In depth
Verdict
La Bandido gets the confident vote here with Vandante and Here Comes Harry rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Cullian last time out that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and off the same mark here and under conditions that suit he looks the value bet in an open affair. Vandante rates the main danger on his latest second behind Silver Dagger, that form has since been franked but all his best form is over a slightly longer trip and for that reason he is opposed. Here Comes Harry is another that could go well on his best form but he has failed to complete the course on his last two starts so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Fear Siuil was third in as hunter chase last time behind Carryonharry but this looks tougher and he needs to improve. Of the remainder the booking of Richard Johnson for Over Bridge catches the eye and he is another to note in the market but for the winner we return to La Bandido who at least ran well last time out.
