Verdict

Hills Of Dubai stepped up markedly on his first run over hurdles when second at Aintree. He has the beating of Sensible Simpson on that run and, like Awesome Tunes, has already won a point-to-point. Big things are expected of TRAFALGAR ROCK over hurdles, however, and Richard Newland appears to have found him a nice starting point. The five-year-old won twice on the Flat in staying races last year for Mark Johnston and he's sure to have had plenty of schooling. Dynamo has also won on the Flat and shown promise over hurdles and fences so can't be ignored but Oh So Gigolo has some improving to do.
