        Verdict

        Stage By Stage, Approaching Land and Volcano Snow are three against the field in this maiden hurdle and the confident vote goes to Stage By Stage. The selection was a fair performer on the flat and although he was disappointing on his hurdling debut when fourth behind Miss Holly he is sure to have learnt from the experience and with Tony McCoy again taking the ride he will be hard to beat. Approaching Land rates the main danger he has won between the flags and was a fair third on his hurdling debut behind Giuliani before disappointing last time out. This faster surface will suit and he has definite place claims. Volcano Snow is another that would have a chance on her best form but she has not progressed as expected and can not be backed with any confidence. Of the remainder Mister Moussac has shown glimmers of ability but he will need to better his best to score and for the winner we return to Stage By Stage.
