In depth
Verdict
Another wide open contest but the TEAMtalk selection is Maousse Honor. The mare from the Martin Pipe yard has bags of ability and has been in good form in sellers of late and also ran well in a handicap last time behind Megazine. This step back down in grade will help and she will be hard to beat. Bhutan rates from the main danger he is from a yard in top form has form on the ground and stays all day. Douceur Des Songes was tried over fences last time out but jumped badly throughout and he reverts to hurdles here but his best form is on slightly faster ground and for that reason he is passed over. Stafford King has been running well without winning of late but he looks in the handicappers grip at present. Forest Green Flyer won in similar grade last time out but he has a penalty for that victory and that could make the difference here. Of the others Spanish Archer could go well at a fair price off what looks a fair weight.
