Verdict
Drive On Regardles has had over two years on the sidelines and though that's rarely a problem for one from this yard this looks a better maiden than usual. Spot Fine has finished a close second in three of his six starts over timber though all have been over the minimum trip while He's Our Man has been unfortunate not to lose his maiden tag by now having finished close up behind several decent hurdlers. TELLHERIMNOTHERE is another who should have been on the scoreboard by now and this looks her chance. She was making the fancied Theleze pull out the stops over a slightly longer trip here in March when falling heavily at the last and provided she is over that error she can gain compensation. Flying Light and Sir Harry Cash are others with chances in an open contest.
