ARCHIE RICE was the subject of controversy at Huntingdon last time after his young rider overdid the waiting tactics and could finish only fourth. Tom Keddy's charge had travelled really well through the race and with Timmy Murphy taking over the reins today, he looks set to open his account over timber. However, there are plenty of others open to improvement not least Spirit D'Armor, who will have come on for his debut sixth at Kempton, while dual bumper winner The Strawberry One could also figure on her hurdling bow. Storm Survivor and Bariolo, a winner on the Flat, are others to consider.
