HIDOR DE BERSY was clear of the remainder when runner-up to the impressive Nurse Susan at Carlisle. The winner easily defied a penalty at Leicester last week and Tom Symonds’ gelding can go one better today. Anyharminasking was beaten just a length at Worcester last month but his conqueror managed only fifth at Exeter on Friday. Crypto Currency, a winner between the flags, goes hurdling after just one run in a bumper and is worth a second look but Secret Trix may need more time. Camembert Electric never threatened at Chepstow but is probably capable of better.
