Verdict
Bailarico started favourite at Uttoxeter when last seen over hurdles but he’s not been pulling up any trees on the Flat recently. Aye Aye Charlie and FLYING VERSE (NAP) were both well behind Tel'art at Stratford a month ago but the latter has since won off a higher mark over fences at Bangor for new connections and can turn the tables. Easyrun De Vassy placed over track and trip last year but may be having a confidence-booster having lost his way over fences.
