Verdict
Nick Slatter's claim looks a bonus for BLETCHLEY CASTLE, who wouldn't need to improve much on his second in a maiden hurdle over 2m here to make a winning start in handicaps. Lean Burn usually runs well around here and has place claims again while Eddy only found one too good at Newton Abbot, though that was his first place in 12 attempts over timber. Tantalized looks best of the rest given Larkhall is best over fences and Dreamisi has got nowhere near so far.
