In depth

Verdict

This looks a wide open affair and many can be given chances on there best form. Murt's Man, Dealers Choice, Charmouth Forest and Dun An Doras are all sure to be fancied but we prefer to side with the in form Brewster. The gelding from the bang in form Ian Williams yard was a good second behind Bolt Action in a better race last time and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. However on a cautionary note he has only ever raced on soft and heavy ground. Murt's Man is better known as a chaser but he is on a handy mark on his return to hurdles and it would be no surprise if he ran well. Dealer's Choice is another that could go well but he has had jumping problems of late and this may just be a confidence booster before he goes back over fences. Charmouth Forest could also go well on his best place form but he is still a maiden after 10 starts. Dun An Doras is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market.
