      Verdict

      Aldiruos, Bernini and Magic Red look to be the principles in this handicap hurdle and we will side with the first mentioned. The selection hails from a shrewd yard and he won well last time out when beating Revelino at Worcester. With conditions to suit he should take plenty of beating. Bernini seemed to regress last season and unless the market suggests that he is fancied he looks worth taking on as his overall profile is disappointing. Magic Red has been pulled-up on each of his last two starts over hurdles so he still has plenty to prove at present; comments that would also apply to Extremist. This is a dreadful race which will not take much winning and we will put forward Aldiruos as the one they all have to beat.
