Verdict
Cuban Pete won over hurdles here in March off a 10lb lower mark. He’s been lightly raced but the going may not be testing enough for him today. Destined To Shine is also a course winner and entitled to respect making his debut over the larger obstacles following wind surgery. Bolving ran over fences four times off this mark last season but failed to win. However, he has place prospects though preference is for DAMUT I’M OUT, who has been in good form all summer and was in the lead when carried out by a loose horse at Ludlow 11 days ago.
