Verdict

No Such Number won on his hurdling debut at Southwell but was then beaten out of sight at Kempton, though this is a big drop in class. Willow Island also appears in this grade for the first time over hurdles but Slaney Star has already finished second twice in sellers since the turn of the year while To The Sky is another with recent placed form at this level. HERBALIST showed little over timber in the autumn but was fourth over 1m4f on the Flat at Brighton last week and was second on the Polytrack earlier. With his weight-for-age allowance, he could be the one in this if lasting home.
