A wide open contest gets proceedings under way with very little public form to go on so the market will be a good guide but the principals look to be Border Tale, Jenavive and Chemicalreatction and we will take a chance on Jenavive. The three year old was a maiden on the flat but showed fair form when fourth behind Triplemoon over 10 furlongs last time out he is sure to have been well schooled for this his hurdling debut and with no ground worries he will be hard to beat. Border Tale rates the main danger he was a fair sort on the flat. However he was far from fluent when a beaten favourite behind Barney's Lyric last time and for that reason he is opposed. Chemicalreatction was a fair fourth behind behind Mezereon and is another that has place claims. Of the remainder Sun Cat and Glimpse of Glory are from shrewd yards and are worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with Jenavive.
