Verdict

Tokaramore isn’t really built for chasing but she’s game and the easy Hexham winner has already been successful twice around here over timber. Danboru has only won one of 10 chase starts but has been in decent form hurdles lately. Millarville has been lightly raced but won twice over hurdles, though is having a first run for Harriet Graham. LOOKS LIKE MURT looked very much like a chaser in two fair runs over hurdles last season. He jumped well on his sole appearance in a point-to-point and should fulfil his potential over the larger obstacles this term.
