Verdict

This is a difficult puzzle to solve, with the vote firmly shaded in favour of the consistent CHOOCHOOBUGALOO. The selection enjoyed a productive time of things last season, and almost made the perfect transition to fences when narrowly beaten into second at the end of that campaign. With a reappearance run under her belt, she can make it second time lucky over the larger obstacles. Although he is 0-4 over fences, Benny's Secret must be respected as he steps back up to 2m4f, while another chance must be given to top-weight Sometimes A Fox. His seasonal/stable debut can be forgiven and he must hold solid place claims on just his second start for this yard.
  1. Choochoobugaloo
  2. Sometimes A Fox
