Verdict

Hurdles debutantes MOONLIGHTINTHEPARK and Azahara Palace are both appealing based on their exploits in different spheres. The latter was a winner of five of her 22 starts on the Flat and is just the type that her new yard excels with. However, preference is for Moonlightinthepark, who was beaten by a potentially very useful filly in The Flaggy Shore (easy winner of a Warwick bumper last week) on her sole start between the flags. Irish import Ufouria is third choice ahead of Anariza.
