Verdict
There is plenty of dead wood in this and I’m Wiser Now’s defection has probably left the door open for OLLY THE BRAVE to follow up a recent victory here over 2m. Exod'ela and The Wire Flyer were both placed last time in bumpers and have place prospects if taking to hurdles. Brummie Boys was third in a Wincanton bumper in April but was 10 lengths behind Perfect Predator, comfortably beaten by the selection here when making his debut over timber.
