Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Edelak has been in outstanding form, back-to-back wins culminating in an emphatic handicap debut display, and a 7lb rise looks insufficient to halt a progressive hurdler with scope remaining within his current mark. Hope Rising is the most likely danger, having been beaten only a length last time under difficult circumstances on a similar surface, while Caelan and Morning Mayhem complete the small field. Edelak is our selection with high confidence.
