Verdict
A wide open contest for this handicap hurdle and many can be given chances on there best form. The Phair Crier and Sunthyne Special are from the bang in form Len Lungo yard and are sure to be prominent in the betting. However The Phair Crier has become disappointing of late and Sumthyne Special has a 407 day absence to overcome. Brave Effect won well last time out when defeating Old Nosey and although he has risen in the weights he will not be far away if in the same mood. The selection however is Barton Dante he was well fancied for a better race last time and if the ground is not to testing will not be far away. Lightning Quest is from a shrewd yard and would have a chance at his best but he has been beset by jumping problems of late. Of the remainder A Few Bob Back has dropped to a handy mark and is worth a cautionary look in the market.
