Verdict

Preference is for HARRY, who has acquitted himself well in a couple of outings for David Pipe and figures off a handy mark. Betty's Tiara and Torrent can also make their presence felt.

5	Three-time winner in France who has posted solid efforts in both starts for new yard on these shores, latest when third of 8 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (2½m, good, 7/1) 11 days ago. Dropped 3 lb since and looks worth a crack at this longer trip. 1st Pick 5 Harry (Swe) Jockey: Rian Corcoran Trainer: David Pipe J: Rian Corcoran T: David Pipe	99	-	-	-	19%

7	C&D winner who was galvanised by first-time blinkers when narrowly taking 15-runner handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good) 27 days ago, given an enterprising ride and just holding on. 4 lb higher now but must enter calculations. 2nd Pick 7 Betty's Tiara Jockey: Callum Pritchard Trainer: Ben Pauling J: Callum Pritchard T: Ben Pauling	96	-	-	-	23%

6	Course winner who posted best effort for some time when third of 16 to Billy Boi Blue over C&D in July. Below that level at Stratford since but better expected back here (6 lb better off with Billy Boi Blue this time). 3rd Pick 6 Torrent Jockey: Murray Dodd Trainer: Nigel Hawke J: Murray Dodd T: Nigel Hawke	100	-	-	-	29%
