Verdict

BROADWAY BUFFALO has been found an easy opportunity to retain his unbeaten record stretching over two bumpers and two hurdles. He wouldn't have been out of place at the Festival this week and connections are obviously playing safe as his jumping still needs some ironing out. Fiddlers Bid will be no pushover having only failed to shine when sent into Grade 2 company at Cheltenham. He just failed to cope with the promising Timesishard at Market Rasen last month and should provide the selection with a fair test. Whenindoubt was a 50/1 chance when producing a much-improved effort behind Titchwood at Southwell and looks easily the best of the remainder.
