Verdict
A small field for this hunter chase and it looks to be between, The Butterwick Kid Father Rector and Hazel Reilly and a chance is taken on Father Rector. The 14year old is sure to be fit for this his first run in 307 days and if he is back to his best he will be hard to beat with conditions in his favour. The Butterwick Kid rates the main danger he was a fair fourth behind Ourman last time but he does not always find as much as is expected off the bridle and for that reason he is opposed. Hazle Reilly was a fair second behind Go Nomadic last time and if the rain stays away she should go well. Royal Crimson needs to improve on all known form to take a hand in the finish.
