Verdict
Thereisnodoubt only won once last season but was generally holding his own in decent company. Malangen is a course specialist but has nothing in hand on Rakhine State on a recent run together. Cuban Cigar was second off this mark over course and distance in April and earlier won a Class 2 at Musselburgh but might just need this. Nottodaybobo is back over hurdles having unseated his rider in a chase at Kilbeggan latest but PARK ANNONCIADE (NAP) looks the one to be on. Beaten less than a length by a more-experienced subsequent winner on his hurdling debut at Sligo, the five-year-old had to be kept up to his work to land the odds here next time but he has bags of potential now handicapping.
