RACING POST VERDICT
The vote goes to JIMMY HURDSTROM to get on the scoreboard after his good third over C&D in March. The main danger is Il Va De Soi.
Racing Post Pick
Jimmy Hurdstrom
Our Expert Tip
A very open looking race for the fourth on the card, but NORMAN FLETCHER catches the eye dropping into a much easier grade.
He now races off a mark of 114 having once been rated 129 and if he can rediscover some of that old ability then he looks capable of winning a race like this at a very decent price.
