Verdict

This is wide open but Stand Guard, who beat Chookie Hamilton only a neck at Wolverhampton last week, carries a penalty as does recent C&D winner Focail Maith. The latter beat Standpoint and Beat Route last time but both Miss Blink and Sherman McCoy have tumbled down the weights and posted better efforts on their latest starts. The vote goes to ORDENSRITTER, well beaten in a couple of outings over hurdles for Chris Down but twice a winner on the Flat in his native Germany and placed on the all-weather at Deauville last year.
