Verdict
It's over two years since My Lord won over hurdles and he's still on a high enough mark. He's one of two distance winners in the line-up, the other being Rolling Dough, who is also on a higher mark than her latest victory in May of last year. WARRANT OFFICER has yet to win in 19 starts over hurdles but came close here last month when only headed at the last and can go one better. Alottarain's only placed effort came when runner-up in a four-runner affair at Wincanton and the remainder make little appeal even in this poor event.
