Analyis of the race

An obviously modest handicap hurdle and KONIGSBOTE had things pan out for him. They went a blistering pace with the result that very few got home.

The winner is unexposed and this was only his fourth outing over hurdles, but he ended up beating a poor bunch who did themselves no favours the way the race was run. He is in the right hands to progress from here and a bit further will not go amiss either.

The others are going to struggle outside of selling company on this evidence.
