Verdict
This won’t take much winning but winning hurdler Northandsouth is proving difficult to place over fences. Brice Canyon has won two point-to-points and ran his best race so far under Rules at Plumpton earlier this month. Market Rasen fourth Nobel Leader is eased in grade but we’ll take a chance on ARDMAYLE. Successful between the flags last year, the five-year-old has been marking time over hurdles and a mark of 105 is not a bad starting point over the larger obstacles. Kazlian and Three Of A Kind, unlucky last time, look the pick of the remainder.
