Verdict
Harry Bannister is probably the jockey with most experience in this and his mount, Charlie Papa Lima, was second over 2m here on his hurdling debut. Knight's Parade has been thereabouts lately but is probably a couple of pounds too high at present. Sweet Holly has had her chances and is another edging up the weights but Dun Scaith is only a pound higher than when runner-up over 3m here in September. LERICHI BELLE should be suited by this extra half-mile and Martin Keighley’s mare can make a winning start in handicaps with Sureness still largely out of sorts.
