Verdict
All of these go chasing for the first time. Henri Parry Morgan has had a recent outing but today's testing ground may prove a problem for him and SUBTLE GREY is preferred. The latter has won two of his four outings over timber, including a success in heavy going at Carlisle. Blameitalonmyroots won over hurdles at Ludlow in February and could also go well but Teddy Tee has something to find in this company on his form over the smaller obstacles.
