Verdict
Winning pointer Battle Frontier is sure to be popular after a much-improved fourth at Fairyhouse. Brian Hughes takes the reins but the drop back in trip is a slight concern on this relatively easy track. FOXHOLLOW is a half-brother to the Tolworth Hurdle runner-up Jetoile and he was making his racecourse debut when second at Doncaster in January. He has since switched stables but can go one better today. Knot Another One has a bit of scope and is one to note for future reference with Cirque Royal best of the rest.
