        Verdict

        A competitive novices hurdle rounds off the card but the principles look to be Figaro du Rocher, It's Rumoured and Boing Boing but we will take a chance on the hurdling debutant Libre. The gelding from the Frank Jordan yard has been in good form on the flat of late and is sure to have been schooled for this his hurdling debut. It is interesting to note that AP McCoy rides this instead of Figaro du Rocher, so take the hint. Figaro du Rocher would have a chance on his second behind Blue Venture but he has since disappointed and for that reason is opposed. It's Rumoured is also worthy of respect after winning well last time out, but he will find this harder under his penalty in a more competitive race. Boing Boing is another that has been in form on the flat but may just need this, his hurdling debut, so we're happy to side with Libre.
