        Verdict

        A field large in numbers but low in quality and only a few can be given chances on there best form. Happy Days, Wensley Blue and Red Genie are all from shrewd yards and a worth a look in the market, but we prefer to take a chance on Requestor. The gelding from the Tim FitzGerald yard won well last time out in similar grade and he will be hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Happy Days is another that goes well on the ground but he was behind requestor last time out and he is worse off at the weights here. Wensley Blue has appeared triples in both is attempts over hurdles so far but the booking of Tony McCoy catches the eye and he is worth a cautionary look in the market. Red Genie has shown a modicum of ability in bumpers and over hurdles and he is taking a drop in class so is another one to consider. The remainder have shown virtually nothing and are readily opposed.
