Verdict
Amuse Me returns to hurdling after disappointing over fences at Worcester and life will be no easier over these obstacles as the handicapper's attentions have seen him raised some 11lb since his Wetherby victory. DUKES ART was a useful handicapper on the Flat for James Toller, and though he hasn't sparkled as yet for David Pipe, he may get his turn on this occasion. Fast ground suits and the combination of a tongue strap and blinkers suggest that connections mean business. Robbie held every chance when crashing out over C&D last time out and Keith Reveley's eight-year-old is sure to be involved again. Canadian Diamond appears to have more than his fair share of quirks but there was to be no fluke about his win at Worcester. That was a fine first time out training performance from Seamus Durack and there could be more to come.
