Verdict

WILDE BLUE YONDER can claim his first victory in over four years by taking the concluding handicap hurdle contest. The selection ran well in a Grade 3 last time out and he can get the better of the unexposed Soul Emotion who was a winner here on his debut for this yard last time. Jester Jet who finished ahead of the selection when winning the aforementioned Aintree contest can take third off her revised mark.
  1. Wilde Blue Yonder
