Verdict
BRADFORD BRIDGE completed a double over hurdles off a higher mark last time and would take all the beating if transferring that form to fences. Net Work Rouge has two ways of running but would go close if on a going day. One Forty Seven was an easy winner over a slightly shorter trip here last month but Dr Robin only scrambled home at Ffos Las and has been raised 7lb. Vendredi Trois and Soupy Soups are others arriving in decent form but Cloth Cap needs to up his game and Orchestrated was found wanting upped to this grade at Plumpton.
