Verdict
Just the five runners turn out and of the quintet MOORLANDS TERI could go well on his debut over timer for a shrewd yard and he's taken to land this ahead of the more experienced Psychological and highest rated Feel The Force. Twice a winner in bumper company, the selection has only really failed to deliver twice when outclassed in listed company. He looked to have plenty of potential last season so any market move in his favour would also be a plus. Psychological has already won over obstacles when taking a maiden hurdle in good style that's been followed by two solid runs in novice events. His sound beating two starts ago isn't as bad as the bare result suggests and he could make experience count. Feel The Force holds the highest rating of those to possess marks and seems to be coming to hand although the ground looks a bit quick for him.
