Verdict

Only four runners go to post for the second race but it looks a little trappy with three of the four holding genuine chances but the winner for us is WEST WITH THE WIND from Miss Sarenne and Askmemroe. The selection will have to jump his fences better today but he looks the type to do well at this game. He is already better over fences than hurdles and won his latest start very easily. This is a step up in class but he has fewer question marks about him than the rest. The Henderson horse must be respected but she is a young horse running against the boys over an inadequate trip. The Irish contender Askmeroe has good recent form but that has all been on heavy ground. Any time he has raced on a quicker surface he has disappointed and is passed over for West With The Wind
