        Verdict

        A large field goes to post for this seller and many would have chances on their best form however the principals look to be Gilfoot Breeze, Lord of The Loch and Ghadames and we will take a chance on Gilfoot Breeze. The seven-year old was behind Lord Of The Loch last time on exactly the same terms but he is better suited by thew likely softer ground here so he is taken to gain his revenge on that rival. Ghadames could also go well he has been chasing of late without much success but he was a fair hurdler in his time and he is worth noting in the market now he drops to this grade. Lord Pat is another worthy of respect as he is a course and distance winner that is sure to strip fitter here than when fifth behind Isca Maiden at Market Rasen last time. Of the remainder Old King Coal is another that takes a drop in grade but in an open affair we will side with Gilfoot Breeze
