Verdict

WEST HILL VERDE should have a race like this within his grasp judged on his good third in a useful maiden at Ascot before Christmas. Hardly Surprising should have more to offer on the back of his latest Bangor third and is second choice ahead of Kiwi Rush, who was better than the result at Cheltenham last time.
