In depth

Verdict

There is already evidence that GOING MOBILE is going to make a better hurdler than chaser and his experience over the larger obstacles could be the decisive factor in this. Global Anchor was 0-8 over hurdles but did hint at ability on occasions and has had wind surgery since pulled up at Catterick at the start of the year. Biscay Bay has an even longer absence to overcome but is another with scope to make a chaser and he reappears on a very low mark.
