HARTBURN is our suggestion unless the market indicates otherwise, Reflected Glory and Bilingual are others that may be able to take a hand. Oliver Greenall looks an improved performer this season and his presence aboard the selection is certainly a bonus. Hartburn didn't show a great deal on her previous run in a Hunter Chase which also came at this track but she's been carrying all before her in points and can set the record straight. Reflected Glory has some decent form at this level to his name over the years and he should go well if gelling with his new pilot who replaces Richard Burton in the saddle. Bilingual is unexposed and represents a yard that has tasted success at this track from just a handful of runners so he merits a second look along with The Reverened who went close between the flags on his latest outing. A market check is advisable but Hartburn receives the vote.
