Verdict
WAYWARD GLANCE, a decent stayer on the Flat for Michael Bell, wouldn't have been sent on the long journey from Sussex without good reason and can make a winning start over timber. It's hard to know what tempted connections to send the moderate maiden Scoglio to Cheltenham for his hurdling debut where he started 150/1 but he ran well for a long way before fading. Blue Destination, a progressive type on the Flat for Phi McBride, pulled hard on his debut over timber at Doncaster and almost stopped at the third last. He still had over a length to spare over Gottany O'S, five times a winner for Mick Channon on the level, and there's no apparent reason for a form reversal. One Of Twins was a long way behind on Town Moor and looks held while Red Inca, a Sandown 1m2f winner for Brian Meehan, looks best of the Brian Ellison newcomers.
