Verdict
Old Salt may struggle to confirm Ludlow running with Crievehill now saddled with a penalty but Evan Williams also runs the promising Positively Dylan, who was second to Ballyandy in a Listed bumper at Newbury in February after winning at Chepstow. JAMESON won his bumper at Bangor in May by 10 lengths and, though the form doesn’t look particularly strong, he’ll have had plenty of schooling before making his bow over timber and is by Midnight Legend and a half-brother to a two-times hurdles winner at Galway. Red Indian has also won a bumper and Joueur Bresilien ran well in a couple of starts in France in 2015, though may need this.
