        Verdict

        Speed Master was a decent hurdler two years ago but the market will probably indicate what is expected on his return from injury. Fairwood Massini is back over fences after finishing third over hurdles at Wetherby but may be too high in the weights now. Hansupfordetroit ran well over 3m here last time, however, and Wychwoods Brook could feature if taking to fences. XAARCET won three times on heavy ground over hurdles last season and hails from a yard that normally gives plenty of schooling to its novice chasers. He could be the pick of the weights in this.
