Verdict
Dropped a further 4lb, AHEAD OF THE FIELD might offer some value in this as he’s not fully exposed over hurdles and is rated 12lb higher over fences. The Boola Boss will probably need this and will be back chasing in the near future but Halligator looks a threat to all having found only one too good in a couple of runs since winning his maiden at Uttoxeter last summer. Scrum Diddly won by 15 lengths in first-time cheekpieces at Ludlow but didn’t beat much and is penalised.
