Verdict
This may have attracted a bumper entry but few make much appeal. Molly Milan's second over 2m here last month is probably the best piece of recent form, though whether she'll reproduce that effort on her second run following a break is anybody's guess. Naburn hasn't really taken to hurdles, despite a recent second at Wetherby, while course winner Hatton Springs has yet to prove he stays this far. CRUACHAN was third off a higher mark over a longer trip in a better race here in November. He didn't handle heavy going last time at Sedgefield and is probably worth another chance.
