Verdict
None of these inspire confidence but CANFORD THOMPSON won a maiden hurdle in 2016 in four starts over timber. He’s been in the mix on the all-weather so far this year and today’s partner, Brodie Hampson, has ridden the winner of this before. Bisoubisou has gone off the boil since scoring at Fakenham in January but Dizzey Heights won at the same track in November and has slipped back down to a winning mark. Course specialist Occasionally Yours landed a double at the end of last year but struggled under today’s rider at Huntingdon earlier in the week.
