Verdict
A difficult bumper rounds off the card and as usual the market will prove all important, but the principles looks to be One More Native, Paddington Green and Rowley Hill and the tentative vote goes to Paddington Green. The five-year-old is from the mainly flat yard of Hughie Morrison. They have already had winners in the sphere this season and this flat-bred gelding is taken to make a winning debut. One More Native rates the main danger and he showed ability last season, notably when fourth to Music to my Ears, and with that experience behind him he will not be far away. Rowley Hill is a well-bred gelding from a yard in form so is worth a cautionary look in the market, while Whats Good is another that stands out on pedigree, but is another that is bred to do better over further, so we will side with Paddington Green.
