Verdict
Sammylou won over a similar distance at Fontwell when last in action in May and has subsequently switched yards. But MORRAMAN (NAP) has the more recent form having made the most of a slide down the weights to score with a bit in hand at Musselburgh last month. Theo Gillard’s allowance negates most of a 4lb rise and this faster ground is not problem. Bari Breeze found one too good in a maiden hurdle recently while Classic Escape should be sharper for last month’s spin over fences and can race off an 8lb lower mark back over the smaller obstacles.
