Verdict
WHITE DIAMOND struggles for stamina over hurdles but won her one and only race under NH Rules over course and distance a couple of years ago off a higher mark and gets a tentative vote in this as she receives weight from other course winners Persian Herald and County Zen, who are essentially platers. Kayfton Pete is conceding the selection 9lb and was tailed off in a Towcester claimer last time but Logical Approach could be a danger as he should reverse Uttoxeter running last month with Poetic Power on 7lb better terms.
