      Verdict

      POLARBROOK has been in fine form over fences and won a chase at Perth last month. He's yet to win over hurdles but looks the one to beat if translating his recent improvement to the smaller obstacles. Piper Hill has a shout on his form in novice races as he makes his handicap debut and any strong support for Lookout Mountain on his return to action could prove significant. Yazdi makes most appeal of the remainder.
