Verdict
Little Windmill was second over fences here at the start of the month but has only been placed once in seven starts over hurdles. THYNE FOR GOLD appeared to appreciate the better ground when fourth last time at Carlisle. He's eased in grade for this and can get off the mark. Run Bob Run wasn't beaten far over this trip at Bangor last month and looks the pick of the remainder.
