    Verdict

    A really good turn out for this modest prize which may be collected by PASCHA BERE who can get the better of Estate and Busker Royal amongst others. Nicky Henderson is also represented by Special Envoy who would be a live contender on his best form but was tailed off last time and Busker Royal may represent his best chance although he should have won more than just the one race over hurdles for one of his ability. Estate has been raised a stone for an easy win at Ludlow but he's not significantly higher in the weights than he was a couple of years back and rates a big danger now that he's recaptured his form. Rajeh is also considered having won a Flat handicap off 83 at the end of last month but preference is for Pascha Bere who is 10lbs higher than when winning a handicap over course and distance last time. He looked an improved performer for a change of tactics and cheekpieces and has the ability to cope with the extra burden which seems perfectly fair given that the second, third and fourth from his latest race all won next time.
