Verdict

Jonjo and AP won this last year and Caddie Master, who completed a hat-trick over hurdles last summer, is an interesting recruit to fences. He gave 9lb and a head beating to Consult at Bangor in August and Martin Keighley's charge will do well to reverse the form. Sangfroid's one decent effort over fences came on this track but he ran poorly on his two subsequent starts but Valento is a fair hurdler who is in very good form and beat a big field at Kempton in April. Francesa was a progressive hurdler and will be better for her opening run over fences on this track but it's LIKE MINDED who gets the nod as he was better than these over timber and will have learnt something from his one run over fences at Fakenham in February.
