    Verdict

    Hey Bill had shown nothing before a surprise victory in a maiden over 2m4f at Worcester last month. The placed horses have been beaten a distance in their respective races so the form looks poor. YOUNG LOU was hit hard by the assessor after scoring over this trip at Market Rasen in the spring and she's been inconsistent subsequently but a return to that form would see her difficult to beat. Big Water has some smart form over fences to his credit and though showing little when reverting to hurdles he's normally seen in much better company than this. Howaboutnever has been well beaten in three starts since scoring at Newbury in March but is only 1lb higher, though his best form is in testing conditions. Justatenner won a Uttoxeter handicap in the spring and ran well for a long way when tackling three miles at Aintree last month so he's no forlorn hope in a tricky little race.
