Analyis of the race

A good handicap hurdle for the course, it was run at a strong gallop and the form should work out. LORD BASKERVILLE, who hadn't been in the best of form since winning at Aintree last May, had dropped back to below his last winning mark, and came backto form. Having moved through to join the leaders three out, he found plenty for pressure to score driven out. He goes goes on faster ground, and could well find a couple more races this summer.

Safari Run travelled well, and after moving up to join issue two out, hung left after the last and couldn't quicken. She stays further, goes on faster ground, and is another who can pick up a race or two if kept going in the next few weeks.

Monsieur raced keenly in the lead but faded. However, he's beginning to find his form again and as he's back on his last winning mark, he should find a race before long. The first four were clear of Day To Remember, who showed a little more than of late. Folk Tune was well backed, but was never going.
