Verdict

BYRON FLYER, rated 133 over hurdles, has been running well in some hot staying handicaps on the Flat. If his jumping is up to scratch, he should be too strong for these. Passing Call wouldn’t have much to find on hurdle ratings but has become hard to predict. Landsman has chasing experience having finished second at Southwell in a race that’s worked out well so can’t be ignored.
