Verdict
Andy Haynes places his horses well and after only finding just the one too good last time we side with his SIR BUMBLE in this Conditional Jockeys' handicap hurdle in preference to Rash Moment and Patchoulie Conti. The one the pick did find too good last time proved to be well handicapped as it duly went on to score next time. Sir Bumble remains untouched by the assessor after that and is versatile as far as the ground is concerned. Rash Moment also found just the one better last time but the form doesn't yet look as strong. He's also up in the weights despite that defeat however he will have the assistance of a top claiming pilot. Patchoulie Conti is from a stable going well so despite not completing on her last two runs will have a chance off a competitive rating. Just Playful receives weight from all and can go well after a couple of solid runs but in a race that won't take a great deal of winning we side with Sir Bumble.
