Ga Law bolted up in a minor contest in France in the autumn. He is having a first run for new connections but could be anything. The Pink'n and Maskada are both battle-hardened juvenile hurdlers and the former finished ahead of Dehradun and Colonel Manderson when third in a Class 2 at Haydock last month. Zarafshan is slowly getting the hang of things but this can go to ELYSIAN FLAME, who can reverse running with Maskada at Chepstow if he runs up to the form he showed at Cheltenham on his hurdling debut.
