Verdict
Disputed had little chance in a Grade 2 hurdle here last time and is better judged on his earlier second in a handicap at Kempton. He can figure but it could pay to stick with TANIT RIVER. The latter returned a clear winner at Bangor recently under today's conditional and should make another bold bid. A winner at Market Rasen, Libeccio has the form to figure but has been off the track since April while Guards Chapel was well beaten at Newbury last time, though has a shout on his earlier second at Huntingdon.
