Verdict

Ghaabesh was a modest sort on the Flat but made a winning start to his hurdles career when beating more experienced rivals at Bangor. He has scope for improvement but that race was a seller and he has more on his plate here under a penalty. PEAKS OF FIRE joined Tim Vaughan in the autumn but ran his best race so far for the Vale Of Glamorgan handler when second at Worcester earlier this month - he can go one better here. Muwalla would probably have been placed at Kelso last time had he not fallen and looks the pick of the remainder.
