        Verdict

        Sharp Reply is the pick over the likes of Bukit Tinggi, Estate and Nero West. Sharp Reply is better known for his jumping exploits really, three of his four career successes coming over timber. His latest victory came in that sphere at Perth in April, and since then Sue Bradburne's charge has had two spins round here, one on the Flat and more recently back over hurdles, running quite well on each occasion. Back on the level again, he lines up that bit fitter, and will hopefully use his stamina to good effect today. Bukit Tinggi is impeccably-bred, but connections have not been very patient, stepping him up in trip yet again here. He looks reasonably weighted and should give a good account providing he stays the two miles. Estate has already proved his worth for Eoghan O'Neill and it will be interesting to see whether his current trainer sends him jumping this winter, as he looks well handicapped under that code at least. Nero West stays every yard of this trip, but is better with more cut in the ground, while Trance has taken on good opponents in the past, but has to defy topweight. Sharp Reply is the pick in the final and longest race on the card.
