Verdict

Typically competitive fare with the vote in favour of handicap debutant PIKE COUNTY. A winner in bumpers, he showed plenty in defeat over hurdles earlier in his career and is the type to do better now handicapping arriving fit from the Flat. Last-time-out winners Elite Trooper Grey and Bythesametoken are feared, along with Call A Cab and Melly And Me.

  1. PIKE COUNTY (IRE)
