Verdict

Pindar, a winner on Polytrack at Lingfield in August, followed-up on fast ground over hurdles before disappointing on softer going at Uttoxeter. It would be no surprise to see him bounce back and the market is best watched. Rough Times has been chasing without much luck but had shown some ability over hurdles in Ireland but it's ANAY TURGE, who can revert to hurdling on a 12lb lower mark than over fences, who is handed the vote as he will enjoy the ground and is well enough handicapped. King's Road has been running reasonably well on the Flat and has fitness on his side but Ministry will probably do better when sent over further. Dual Flat winner Oriental Cat may be capable of better than he's shown so far over timber.
