        Verdict

        MIGHT I beat a subsequent winner by 11 lengths at Newton Abbot in October and could be a smart recruit to hurdling. But he won’t have things all his own way here as Hardkore beat the odds-on Good Risk At All at Chepstow when relatively unfancied and Constitution Hill could be anything having changed hands for £120,000 after finishing second in an Irish point in April. Name In Lights was second in a maiden over course and distance on his hurdles bow and Outlaw Peter finished lame when fourth at Chepstow so is capable of better. Thelasthighking has placed in a point and bumpers but looks more of a chasing type.
