Verdict
Reverting to hurdles, Looks Like Power was just touched off over 2m here last time and runs his best races here. This is probably West Torr’s time of year and he’s another who has gone well here in the past, though he’s making his chasing bow. Wolftrap has won three times over hurdles and Gone Platinum was second at Downpatrick over fences last year when trained by Henry De Bromhead. Earthmoves won a seller here last month but was well beaten on his first start for new connections. STEALING MIX only won a maiden hurdle at Exeter last month but should come into his own now tackling the larger obstacles and could have been let in lightly here.
