Verdict
This may be a bit more competitive than first appears. Burrows Lane is probably the form pick on his second over course and distance two weeks ago and that was his first run for Charlie Longsdon. Royal Plaza is looking exposed but the same can't be said of winning pointer Cuirassier Dempire and PICKAMIX. Charlie Mann's grey bolted up ahead of a previous winner in a Market Rasen bumper in June and, being a half-brother to chaser Donapollo, should find the transition to hurdles an easy one. Late Romantic hinted at ability on his debut under Rules at Cartmel in May and looks best of the rest.
