Verdict
Howwoulduno got off the mark in a maiden hurdle at Down Royal last month and has scope for further improvement but it must be a worry that God's County has now been pulled up in three of his last four starts and hasn't raced since August last year. THINGS CHANGE reversed Wetherby running with Discovery Bay at Cartmel last month to open his account. He's heading in the right direction and is fancied to double his tally here as both Oakwell and The Bold Lord are looking very one-paced. Swing Hard has won a point-to-point but will surely need further than this.
