oddschecker Verdict
SAN HILARIO sets the standard in this maiden hurdle with a rating of 117 and brings some of the strongest form on offer. The gelding has previously run with credit and this looks a good opportunity to finally get off the mark. While he has shown a tendency to find one too good, it would be disappointing if he failed to capitalise here. The returning Martin Plage, making his first start since December 2024, is an interesting contender, while Sampoet can battle it out for the minor honours.
Prediction: 1st San Hilario, 2nd Martin Plage, 3rd Sampoet
