    Verdict

    Enthused was due to make his hurdling debut in the 1.40 Sedgefield yesterday. The eight-year-old Olly's Folly is 0-56 in career starts though has placed several times over hurdles. Useful chaser SIR TIVO ran his best race so far over hurdles at Uttoxeter last month, with Dance At Night behind, and will probably be a short price to go one better here, though Al Gaiya has been in good form on the Flat recently and Decorated has won a bumper.
