      Verdict

      This will not take a lot of winning and maybe Saorsie can get the better of Little Ora. Going through the field. Rainbows Aglitter seems to always find one too good for him. Saorsie keeps getting raised for good losing efforts but can still run well. Whaleef's bid for a three-timer was thwarted at Southwell last time, the gelding finding disappointingly little in the process. Investor Relations sole win so far has come in a seller, Jonjo O'Neill's Irish maiden hurdle winner Zawoyski has an 853-day absence from the track to overcome, although Tony McCoy has been booked to ride; Risky Way has been raised 8lbs for a Market Rasen win last time, and Bude is five pounds higher than for his Uttoxeter success. Time For Action hasn't won for five years, but Little Ora could well bag some money on his first run in this country. Greenacres Boy is miles out of the handicap so, without any real confidence, the road leads us back to Saorsie.
