      Verdict

      CRACKER FACTORY (NAP) has to give away 10lb and upwards to all rivals but has looked the best juvenile hurdler seen so far this season and is impossible to oppose on the back of a facile course and distance success last time. Alan King has an excellent touch with juvenile hurdlers and his charge should complete his hat-trick without too much fuss. Barbara Villiers was way behind the selection on debut and Ventura Magic, a sound second at Uttoxeter last time, looks the one most likely to follow the selection home. Dual Flat winner, Mouchee, is best of the rest.
