Race Overview
FUNWAY (2) has good recent course form and was a decent fifth in a Listed hurdle at this track last time out in mid-January. He is the marginal preference ahead of NEW PRESIDENT (1) who has been handicapping recently, with credible performances with loft weights. HEROS D'AINAY (8) looks like a safe option for the each-way backers to side with. KAZADOR DE KERSER (7) reverts to hurdles and merits consideration.
Selection:
2 - 1 - 8
