Golden Town completed a double over hurdles last summer but hasn't run since July. LUCKY LOVER BOY arrives in winning form having scored on the Tapeta here ten days ago. He's also won three times over hurdles so will be difficult to beat. Siannes Star really found his form last spring, scoring over timber at Perth and Market Rasen, so he'll be a threat if ready while Seaborough has experience on the surface and won over hurdles in December.
