In depth

Verdict

There is not a great deal to choose between Bit O Magic and Dingo Dancer on official BHB ratings with the former meeting his rival on only 4lbs better terms than in a handicap. Ferdy Murphy's 10-year-old comes into this in good form having won at Huntingdon last time and should make a bold bid to follow up. The latter would not want any further rain. Able Native, who was the best of these over hurdles, would take all the beating if able to translate that form over the larger obstacles.
