        Verdict

        Busy Street still looks a shade high in the weights after going close at Wolverhampton with Fire Fighting back in fourth. Scarlet Dragon represents last year’s winning yard and the winning hurdler has a good strike rate on the Flat. He’s preferred to Hulcote off his current mark but ENTANGLING (NAP) gets another chance back over 1m4f for this. David Elsworth’s charge made a winning comeback at Kempton on his first outing since 2017 before going close again over 1m2f here behind Victory Bond with the re-opposing Circus Couture back in seventh. He won with plenty in hand on the only previous occasion he competed over today’s distance and a bold bid is expected.
