Verdict
HUIT REFLETS has been so reliable for a good while now and again ran to form when runner-up at Sedgefield. He has done most of his recent racing at that venue, but there is no reason why he won't be effective here and he is the safest option in a race where the majority of his rivals have questions to answer. Singapore Trip made a solid enough return to chasing when third at Market Rasen, while Hawkseye View is a longstanding maiden but can get involved.
Expert View Verdict
SINGAPORE TRIP has been in good form over hurdles this term and held his form on his recent chase return. He is on a dangerous mark judged on his old French efforts and is fancied to defy top weight. The consistent Huit Reflets looks the obvious danger though he is a touch frustrating and is often out-battled late in a finish. Gonnino proved inconsistent over hurdles but looks fairly treated on his best form and should appreciate this step up in trip now hurdling. He can also get involved in a tight contest.
