Yur Next is penalised for a recent course and distance success when ahead of Distant Sound, Titch Strider and I'llhavealook. She should be thereabouts again but had earlier finished third over these hurdles when SONG OF THE NIGHT (NAP) was beaten only a head. The latter is fancied to edge things once again on similar terms and Charlie Longsdon’s charge gets the nod. Boher Lad remains 10lb higher than an earlier win at Ludlow, though has subsequently finished second and could be in the mix given most of the remainder are struggling at present.
