      Verdict

      This looks a very modest maiden hurdle and CEARA BE has shown promise in both starts to date over obstacles. Alex Hales’ Southwell third looks the one to beat as It's O Kay has five lengths to find on earlier Newbury running and Cut And Run looks held on collateral form. Show Of Force won twice on the Flat at Chepstow and makes more appeal than other hurdling debutantes Avonmore and Ruby Du Berlais.
