Verdict
Shore Thing is hardly that but he looks the most reliable option here with Bethanys Boy and Simba Sun booked for the minor berths. Shore Thing met against an above average recruit last time out in Donaldson and the pair were clear of the third. There doesn't look to be anything of that ilk lurking in the wings. Bethanys Boy dotted up in a seller at Towcester though has struggled to go on outside of that sphere. Simba Sun has been a bitter disappointment and has made a habit of finding nil off the bridle. Feeling Peckish, Hallys Goal and Government are exposed as ordinary. Crosby Jemma was 0 from 14 during her flat career while Parkview Love failed to trouble the judge on his previous foray into hurdling. Shore Thing can have few excuses tonight.
