In depth
Verdict
Heroes will have come on from his most recent outing and his yard are in decent form of late but selection here goes to GOLDEN SQUARE who can also see off the challenge of Nothingbutthetruth. Tony Carroll's gelding is a better hurdler than he is a flat performer and proved this last time running a superb race over distance at Ludlow. A repeat of that performance should see him out in front here and see him snatch his first victory in over a year. Tim Vaughn's Heroes ran well on his return from a three month break last time out he will have appreciated the run out there and can do better here. The gelding has one victory to his name, that came almost three years ago and although he looks capable of much improvement a finish behind the selection looks likely. It has to be said that Nothingbutthetruth has been disappointing so far this year but finds himself up against much more forgiving opposition here today and can be thereabouts at the post if he can recapture some of his early career form. Amir Pasha and Reflective Glory will need to improve on past form if the are to figure here, if they don't they have a mammoth task ahead of them to get the better of our selection Golden Square.
