Verdict

VINNIE LUCK could be the answer now sent handicapping for the first time. His best form is over this sort of trip, including a solid effort in a maiden hurdle at Listowel in September. Having acquitted himself well enough over 2m here in January, he looks capable of scoring now. Captainofthefleet has winning C&D form in the book and is weighted to go well again now. Woodford Island's trainer is in brilliant form, so he is considered too while Westerner Point will be a massive danger to all concerned if he's able to transfer his chase form to these smaller jumping tests.
  1. Vinnie Luck
