Verdict

HIBIKI comfortably comes out best on official ratings and is handed the vote as he easily won a fast ground seller at Fakenham last May and has run in better company subsequently. It was a poor seller that Extremely So won here last week over a slightly longer trip but at least she's in good form and should be in the mix. Swiss Art has been struggling badly over hurdles and fences so Edgware Road, runner-up at Exeter last week on only his third start over timber, could provide the main threat.
