In depth
Verdict
A wide open contest here with many in form rivals in opposition including Celtic Vision, Broken Dream and Madam's Man and we will take a chance on Broken Dream. The six year old was a fair sort over hurdles has had a run over fences before with that experience behind him he will be hard to beat. Celtic Vision rates the main danger he was a fair third behind Urban Hymn last time but he is hard to win with so for that reason is opposed. Madam's Man is also worthy of respect he is from a yard in form but his best form to date has been over further. Of the remainder Big Max looks to be on a fair mark but he was beset with injury problems last season so we are happy to stick with Broken Dream.
