        Verdict

        An interesting event with a number of lightly raced and progressive hurdlers on view. Inn Antique appeared to lose his way over the larger obstacles last term but has appreciated the return to hurdling and his confidence will be sky high following a recent seven-length victory at Sedgefield last month. The six-year-old displayed a fine turn of foot to settle matters in the closing stages and, with conditions in his favour, the Ferdy Murphy-trained gelding has the class to overcome a double penalty. Spree Vision finally opened his account over hurdles at Newcastle last month but had to work hard for the victory and looks vulnerable under a 7lb penalty while bumper winners Perouse and Cumbrian Knight have plenty to find on their hurdling bows.
