Verdict

This won’t take much winning. YOUNG O’LEARY (NAP) was beaten under a length in a higher grade when last seen over hurdles so gets the nod ahead of Cossack Dancer, who showed no improvement having a first run for a new yard at Southwell but might be suited by this step up in distance. Tango Echo Charlie has shown some ability but has proved hard to train.
