        Verdict

        Wembury Point,Ignotus and Snow Tempest are three against the field in this competitive opener and the tentative vote is given to Wembury Point. The selection was one of the best of these on the flat is bred to appreciate this sort of trip and is sure to have been well schooled for this his hurdling debut and he will not need to be anything special to score. Ignotus rates the main danger as he catches the eye on breeding and is from a yard in top form so he should be closely monitored in the market. Snow Tempest hails from a yard that does well in this sphere and is another that should be noted in the market. Of the remainder, Midnight In Moscow has shown a modicum of ability on the flat and is another that could run well at a price but in a race where the market may well tell all for the winner we return to Wembury Point.
