Verdict
Paddy For Paddy,No Retreat and Vinnie Boy look the main protagoniusts in this hunter's cghase with the vote going to Paddy For Paddy. The selection was a fair second behind Holy Joe last time out, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and with the drying ground also in his favour he looks the one to be on. No Retreat rates the main danger on his latest second behind Tinarana Lord but he is becomming hard to win with and at likely oddws he looks worth taking on. Vinnie Boy is another that could go well on his best form but he dissapointed for no apparent reason last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Tinarana Lord is game and consistent and is sure to run his race while Spiers Peace has age on his side and could improve on this faster ground so should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Paddy For Paddy who sets a fair standard and will be hard to beat.
