In depth
Verdict
Tactics could play a part in this as both MADE FOR YOU, an all-the-way course and distance winner last time, and Theocrat both ran the opposition into the ground last time. The Olly Murphy inmate clearly enjoys this track so just gets the nod, though Nigel Hawke regularly pitches juvenile hurdlers into handicaps against their elders once they've accumulated sufficient experience. Barnay also adopted make-all tactics when obliging at Carlisle in February but Smart Getaway, a stablemate of the selction, returns after a 549-day absence.
