Verdict
This is wide-open with only a speculative vote going the way of MINELLA FRIEND. A mistake close home cost him the lead when odds-on at Exeter last time and he can make amends with a clear round. Maybe I Wont keeps finding at least one too good and Downtown Boy has also gone close on more than one occasion. Hit The Top has claims on his latest placed effort over track and trip while Royal Macnab showed a big improvement for his first start over hurdles. Vasco Pierji, Jac The Legend and Robbers Roost have all shown ability in bumpers and make their hurdling debuts today.
