In depth

Verdict

Those with hurdling experience are nothing special so we’ll concentrate on a couple of recruits from the bumper ranks. THISONETIME has had a break since showing signs of inexperience when making a winning debut under Rules at Warwick in January but he’s still preferred to Longtown, third at Warwick in April. Cave Top and Shambougg may be best of the rest.
