Verdict

This can be another winner for the Hobbs stable with From Dawn To Dusk with Greencard Golf and First Centurion posing as the biggest dangers. The selection finished an eye catching third of eighteen at Wincanton last time out and looks as though he could be coming back to his best. He has had some problems in his time but this is a poor event and with the yard in such good form he has to be respected. Greencard Golf managed his last win this time last year but has failed to repeat that effort since. He has not been seen out since October of last year when a decent third of fourteen at Ludlow. He will need to be producing his best to win this. First Centurion still looks very much on the up grade. He did win on the flat a couple of years ago and his latest effort at Warwick when finishing fourth of fourteen looked good so is to be noted in the market. But for the winner we return to From Dusk To Dawn.
