Verdict

A competitive handicap hurdle, but if SOLO SAXOPHONE is fully recovered from his runaway win at Wetherby last week he should take plenty of beating under his 7lb penalty. If he fails to hit the right notes then hat-trick seeking Saint Freule may be best placed to take advantage despite a big hike in the weights. Becky The Thatcher and The Vocalist, who returns from wind surgery, and the others who have claims to consideration.
  1. Solo Saxophone
  2. Saint Freule
  3. The Vocalist
