Verdict

A competitive event of its type and most of these can be considered to be well handicapped on their old and best form. BEAT THAT returns to the scene of his Grade 1 hurdles win and on his run at Chepstow in a veterans’ event last time despite finishing behind Exitas he has a good chance of reversing the form and picking up the winning thread. Pendra makes some appeal and should go well fresh with Ballybroker Breeze another returning to the scene of his best recent form and he’ll be in with a chance if he’s stays upright. Double Ross remains a danger in handicapping terms if regaining his verve after his early fall last time.
  1. Beat That
  2. Ballyboker Breeze
  3. Pendra
