Verdict
After a very impressive victory last time ARDESIA looks the one in a Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle with Amir Pasha and Financialregulator looking the dangers. The selection's 10 length victory on his reappearance from a short break was his first attempt over course and distance and with conditions looking perfect again he looks well treated off bottom weight under a penalty. Amir Pasha will be fit from a runners-up display on the level and was in decent form when leaving the jumps arena so should continue in that ilk. Financialregulator finally confirmed his winning bumper promise on his second start for this yard last time when finding just one too good. He'll have to build on that to win this but he's in good hands. Lady Rusty benefitted for the application of headgear on her last run and if that has the same effect again she should be involved but plenty more will be needed to beat Ardesia.
