Verdict

AMERICAN LIFE doesn't tend to find winning easy (5-62 over hurdles) but he has been running well in five starts over the winter since joining this handler and has won around here in the past. He'll handle conditions and Ross Turner takes a useful claim off from the foot of the weights, so this represents a decent chance. More Than Luck reverts back to hurdles in first-time blinkers with a chance to go well while Allthegear No Idea was second in a similar contest at Lingfield recently and is entitled to put his hat in the ring once more.
