Political Paddy had shown his best form over hurdles when third on fast ground two runs ago, but handled this much slower ground and only just failed. He had 7lb to find with the winner on official ratings, and on this form, he'll win a race. The pair were clear of Autograph, who was back over hurdles after making mistakes in chases. He made the running, but couldn't quicken from the last.
