Verdict
Pure Vision won over hurdles at Exeter in March but didn’t get that far before falling on his chasing debut at the same track last week. He can figure with a clear round but CHAMPAGNE CHASER is preferred as he managed to finish third at Hexham on his first start over fences despite looking less than fluent and should know more here. Zalgarry has won a handicap over hurdles off today’s mark but his only start over fences so far was back in 2011 while A Bold Move and Old Salt are chasing newcomers to note.
