In depth
Verdict
A competitive contest gets proceedings under way and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Tigers Lair, What Do'In, Tsar's Twist and Complete Outsider and we will take a chance on What Do'In. The selection is from a yard that is in top form and a reproduction of his latest fourth behind The Posh Paddy in a listed bumper would make him hard to beat if he jumps round. He is sure to have been well schooled for this his hurdling debut and will be hard to beat. Tigers Lair rates the main danger he was a fair fourth behind Dominican Monk last time out and is sure to be suited by the step up in trip so he is worth noting in the market. Tsars Twist is another worthy of respect he was a fair third behind Tudor King last time but he lacks the scope of the selection and for that reason he is opposed. Complete Outsider has a top jockey booked for this type of event so is another to note in the market but his over all form leaves him with a little to find. Of the remainder Twisted Lodgic would go well in this on his chase form but it remains to be seen if he has the pace for the switch to hurdles and for the winner we return to What Do'In.
