Verdict
GOLDEN FUTURE could show up well at an each-way price whilst Crazy Bold, Shilpa and Keep Gunin also merit consideration in an open race. The selection's recent form figures are far from compelling but he has yet to have his ground in three starts over hurdles for Peter Niven but has run well enough on the Flat for this yard on top of the ground. He looks fairly treated on the pick of his form in Ireland and it would be no surprise to see him attract support with Graham Lee in the plate. Keep Gunin hasn't exactly shone in bumpers and over hurdles but there's every possibility that handicapping will help to show him in a better light. Crazy Bold has the form to figure but of more interest may be Shilpa who was beaten a long way at this track last time. The winner went on to show up well in the competitive Swinton Handicap Hurdle so it's fair to think that she was far from disgraced. This company will be much more to her liking and she's entitled to go close but we'll take a chance with Golden Future.
