Verdict

Ammonias, Roman Court and Azzemour look the three to concentrate on in this novices hurdle and the confident vote goes to Ammonias. The selection won well at Wetherby last time out when defeating Celtic Blaze/. He is sure to have come on for the run and if he gets a stronger gallop here than he did at Wetherby which seem likely he will be hard to beat despite his penalty. Roman Court rates the main danger on his best form but he took a heavy fall last time out so is hard to hard to put forward with any confidence.Azzemour was sent off favourite when very disappointing behind Megapac last time so is clearly thought capable of better but he will need to settle better here if he is to trouble the selection. Of the remainder Grand Music has shown a modicum of ability in his native France and is one to note in the market but for the winner we return to Ammonias.
