Verdict

Nordwind prefers the ground to be on the faster side of good and completed a hat-trick over timber last year. He has disappointed somewhat over fences since then but back over hurdles could be one for the frame places. Ahmedy has a decent record over jumps and could play a part but Dontpaytheferryman would prefer the ground to have plenty of cut in it to challenge. Degas Art has won some decent races on the flat and over jumps including a listed juvenile novices' hurdle earlier in his career. He has shown little in recent seasons but has tumbled down the ratings and is worth consideration. Maska Pony is 11lb higher than last time and looks too high in the weights as a result. Ashammar was a good winner at Sedgefield and his trainer has good results at this course but he gives weight away all round and preference is for SHADRACK. He is 11lb higher in the ratings than when last seen but progressively improved all through last term and if coming on during summer jumps training at his yard then he can take the race.
