In depth

Verdict

Commercial Flyer is turned out again following his run here yesterday and while obviously well treated, another race in such quick succession has to be of concern so preference is for Comanche War Paint, who gets the vote ahead of Hot Weld. The last mentioned looked a useful recruit to the novice hurdling ranks when winning at Sedgefield and Newcastle earlier in the campaign before disappointing at Doncaster in January and Ferdy Murphy's gelding may be best watched on his return. Try Catch Paddy has given little sign of encouragement of late but has been given a chance by the handicapper and of more interest may be Blackergreen, who is probably better than he showed here on Wednesday. The vote though goes to Comanche War Paint, who is unexposed as a hurdler and should improve further for today's longer trip having needed every yard of the three miles when successful at Cheltenham last time.
