An Bradan Feasa has left Joseph O’Brien since making a winning debut over hurdles at Ballinrobe. I Still Have Faith easily landed the odds at Wetherby and there should be more to come from the four-times Flat winner but Eagle Prince only scrambled home at Sedgefield. Gifted Angel has already won three times over timber but is the most exposed. Galactic Jack was highly tried on the Flat for Andrew Balding but won twice, though he’s another to have changed stables. Classy on the level, BURDETT ROAD pulled hard on his hurdles bow at Huntingdon but still won with plenty in hand and he may have too much pace for French challenger Milan Tino, who has placed twice in decent company at Auteuil.
