Verdict
HERBERT PARK (NAP) was having his first start since January when scoring at Worcester last month. He’s been raised 6lb but there should be more to come from David Pipe’s charge in handicaps and he’s preferred to the returning Ballypoint. The latter signed-off last season with a course victory in a maiden hurdle while City Supreme went close to following a success at Newbury when runner-up at Warwick in April. Tobefair landed a hat-trick over hurdles last year and returns to action off a 7lb higher mark.
