Who's The Guv'Nor has placed in three of his seven hurdle starts to date but looks a bit exposed. GLENTRUAN jumped poorly on his chasing bow at Limerick but had been in good form over hurdles in the spring and Kevin Brogan’s claim halves his penalty. He is probably more reliable than Malpas, who has twice thrown away winning opportunities by falling. Kinondo Kwetu was 2-2 in points but Findthetime was a well-beaten third at Perth last month.
