In depth
Verdict
A fairly run of the mill handicap here with preference going to in-form winning hurdler Sunridge Fairy who has acted on this surface in the past and should win this before going on to land more hurdle races. Deco Star was sharpened up by the application of a first-time visor recently over this course and distance but had previously been under a cloud and is best watched here. Broughton Knows is an interesting contender for Willie Musson. Stable money usually follows his charges so watch out for any moves. Bid Spotter looks reasonably handicapped at present and showed something like his old form last time out. He could be one to consider at a decent price.
