    Verdict

    Irish raider Captain Hox won twice over hurdles and has shown a bit of potential over fences, though was beaten 20 lengths by the long odds-on Pain Au Chocolat at Newcastle earlier in the month. The mare FAIRYTALE THEATRE is making a belated debut over the bigger obstacles but her form over hurdles suggests she should be up to beating her sole rival as she has a chasing pedigree.
