Verdict

Crosshue Boy was a promising novice chaser last season and won at this meeting last year but little has gone right this term and he’s best watched for now. The lack of a recent run is a concern for Mount Hanover, Getoutwhenyoucan and Best Behavior but Timeforwest has been in winning form this season and Hareth has eased to a fair mark. BRAVE OUT (NAP) is 6lb higher than when winning this last year but a repeat may be on the cards given he ran well in what was a stronger contest at Gowran last month. Fiveaftermidnight has been knocking on the door and should be a factor again off bottom weight.
