Verdict
Pacific De Baune looks a danger to all reverting to hurdles but Malaya looks worth opposing again off her current mark. Eddiemaurice was second in this last year when 2lb higher so goes on the short-list while Distingo arrives in decent form and is weighted to reverse last month’s form with Mystic Sky. Romanor has a squeak but Charlie Hammond takes a further 5lb off bottom weight JACBEQUICK and reverting to a sharper track will suit David Pipe’s charge, who ran out of steam up the home straight last time at Leicester.
