Verdict
Ride The Range won a maiden hurdle at Hexham over a longer trip last month while Narcissist was placed in a handicap at Wetherby last week. Both should go well but have plenty to find on today's terms with ROSERROW. The latter won one of these events at Sedgefield last time and can shrug off a penalty and can go in again. Crinkle Crags finished third in a bumper on his debut back in March and is related to a winning hurdler while Why But Why returns to hurdling but has yet to win in 10 starts over timber.
