Verdict

The Trigger won for the first time under Rules at Killarney last month but has been hit with a 9lb rise. BRAVE HELIOS (NAP) has been dropped 3lb since finishing third at Southwell last November. He ran a nice race over hurdles at Worcester in June and can open his account over the larger obstacles today, though Moorlands Jack is back on a winning mark and capable when in the mood. Fled Or Pled won twice over timber last year but things have gone awry since.
