Verdict
Global Esteem, five times a winner on the Flat, has moved to Fergal O'Brien who will be finding races for him. Captain Attridge caught the attention of the stewards when placed at Ludlow in May so there's likely to be more to come. Dixie Flyer won a bumper for Henry De Bromhead but mainly disappointed over hurdles while Kenzai Warrior has questions to answer after a poor run at Worcester following a good run there earlier. SCHMILSSON, a winner on the Flat for Andrew Balding, has moved to Olly Murphy and can make a successful hurdling debut though winning bumper Shinji is one to keep an eye on.
