Verdict
Beny Nahar Road has only found one too good in two runs this term but he looks very one-paced. FIERCELY PROUD has to give him 7lb but he was a useful sort in bumpers last season and has transferred that ability to hurdles judged on an impressive victory at Hereford. Tregele wasn’t beaten far at Worcester in May but hasn’t raced since and Geezer Rockstar has been absent since landing a bumper here in April. Plumpton third Avada Kedavra may not be suited by a drop back to 2m but Chauffeur Driven may have come up against a couple of above-average novices when third at Ffos Las.
