Verdict

Stucker Hill is the only course and distance winner in the line-up having won this in 2018. She was racing over fences earlier this year but has reverted to hurdling in very good form and must be on the shortlist. Amor Verdadero has been going quite well but was beaten 11 lengths by Walking In Memphis last year and is only 4lb better off. The winner has shown very little since that victory so this can go to DEILGINIS (NAP). Joseph O'Brien's mare won a Wexford handicap hurdle in May last year before completing a double over fences at the beginning of this year. She's on a 22lb lower mark back over timber and should take advantage.
