Verdict

Callisto Moon, Devilfishpoker Com and Soliya are the three to focus on here and Callisto Moon is nominated to get Tony McCoy fans off to a winning start. Devilfishpoker Com was rated in the 50s on the Flat but remained a maiden before scoring on his hurdling bow, getting up in the closing stages at Market Rasen. It is hard to evaluate how strong the form is, but he should have learnt from the experience although a penalty may prevent him landing this competitive affair. Soliya was made favourite to score on her British bow here last time and duly did so, even finding time to jump a path en route to victory. She is a major danger to the selection but the weight concession may be too much. Callisto Moon was readily outpointed by Soliya at Stratford on his hurdling debut, and this Warwick handicap winner in April on the Flat may be ridden with more restraint here. He led for most of the way on his debut, and with the champion jockey booked, this 69 rated Flat winner can outpace his rivals. Callisto Moon can take the opener.
