Verdict

Buyer Beware won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle back in March and has been consistent overall. Not disgraced in a fairly competitive handicap at Ballinrobe last time, Gordon Elliott's four-year-old looks the only danger to HASSLE. Richard Newland's Fakenham and Uttoxeter winner couldn't quite peg back Birch Hill at Market Rasen two weeks ago but the slight drop in distance should help and a set of blinkers replace the usual cheekpieces. Golden Town was soon left behind when third over course and distance on his hurdling debut and may always struggle to last home over this sort of distance.
