PACIFY looks a very smart recruit to hurdling even though his campaign to date has been a little low-key. It will be interesting to see how he fares when some of the bigger stables’ novices hit their stride but the seven-year-old can continue winning ways here by giving 7lb to Donald McCain’s mare See The Sea, who is also on a four-timer. Happy B wasn’t beaten far behind a subsequent winner at Worcester last month while Momtalik has joined Phil Middleton having been a four-race maiden on the Flat when with John Gosden.
