Verdict

ROOTLESS TREE looks likely to appreciate the step up in distance here and he can make a winning handicap debut by regsitering a victory in this competitive handicap hurdle. Maypole Class was a winner last time out and he can claim second on his first attempt at this distance. Third place can go to Horse Force One who is making his handicap debut.
  1. Rootless Tree
  2. Maypole Class
  3. Horse Force One
