Lilypad has yet to figure over hurdles though has won on the all-weather since last seen over timber and better is expected from the four-year-old Hypnos this year. Percy Thrower included a course and distance success in last year’s double but Galardo has to race off a higher mark on his debut for a new yard having posted a better effort at Limerick over a year ago. JETSTREAM was placed off today’s mark at Uttoxeter in September and with a recent outing on the Flat under his belt, gets the vote to open his account over hurdles.
