Verdict

Riddlestown won on this card 12 months ago over hurdles and also has a good record over the larger obstacles. He looks to have every chance of another victory in a wide-open contest. Fight Commander has been getting closer and Gun Shy, Oneida Tribe and Some Finish are others to have shown a liking for this track in the past. BREDON HILL LAD has also won around here and Sue Gardner’s gelding has started to slip down the weights again. He could land this if rediscovering the form he showed at the end of last year. Nickname Exit is not out of this either but Very Live has been finding a way of getting beat off lower marks recently.
