Verdict
BUTTE MONTANA, a winner over hurdles when trained in the UK, needs to brush up his jumping but this is a weak handicap and the better ground will aid his cause. Bilbo Bagins is looking a light of former days but Go Battle should be thereabouts if fully primed following a lay-off and the lightly-raced Blackjack Boy took a step forward when fifth at Tipperary.
