      Verdict

      Windsor Avenue was very impressive at Sedgefield and looks to have a bright future over the larger obstacles but has to give 5lb to BALLYMOY. A Grade 3 winner over hurdles, Nigel Twiston-Davies’ six-year-old probably came up against a very smart novice in Nube Negra at Warwick. He would have got much closer had his jumping been a bit more polished and will strip fitter here. The remaining trio all have a bit to prove at present and are probably playing for places, though Hidden Dilemma won on this card 12 months ago
