Verdict

A case can be made for most of these but HELSGETAWAY could still have more to offer as a staying hurdler and looks well worth another chance. Guernesey can go well fresh and makes appeal dropped into a 0-100, while Buzz Iceclear should improve now tackling handicaps over a longer distance.
