In depth
Verdict
Monbeg Oscar went close in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow last time and steps up in distance. But Boreham Bill has the edge at the weights and will find this easier than his recent tasks in novice company. DON LAMI won a bumper last year and made a promising start over timber with a second at Doncaster in December. He beat a horse rated 127 on that occasion and that form should see him in the mix with normal progress. Dakkar Collonges was already beaten when falling at Fakenham last time and Hurricane Dylan makes his hurdling bow on his first start since 2016.
