Verdict

BRADMAN has won his last two starts at Fontwell, travelling well when coping with heavy conditions last time, and can land the hat-trick despite a 6lb rise. Expensive winning pointer Local Derby has yet to make an impact over hurdles but has been dropped 5lbs following his latest effort. He remains lightly raced and there could be more to come. Quirky Broomfield Gale drew clear for an easy success at Taunton 21 days ago, while Tractor Jack may do better now handicapping.

  1. BRADMAN
  2. LOCAL DERBY (IRE)
