In depth

Verdict

Having shown a degree of ability last time Hansbury looks hard to oppose for his in-form trainer. That debut run saw him run better than expected and this is a weaker race. Kittenkat has the best form of the rest but it adds up to little while a market move for Offshore would be interesting. Moorland Again showed he was fit to race when narrowly beaten over hurdles recently. If taking well to fences he could give the selection most to do.
