Verdict

HACKBRIDGE ended a losing streak stretching back over 3 years on the Flat at this track last month and, if able to put a below-par effort over hurdles at Plumpton last week behind him, Pat Phelan's charge looks the one to side with. Smart Connection was just a head behind the selection in February and is expected to continue his good run of form, with Pillars of Earth and Forge Valley Lad also not without hope.
