Commitment has the benefit of experience over fences with a third at Uttoxeter. He was only rated 4lb lower than STREET ENTERTAINER over hurdles so there shouldn't be much between the pair but we'll take the chance that David Pipe's eight-year-old enjoys the new challenge having looked a reformed character over the smaller obstacles lately. It Is I is quickly sent over fences after just the one ordinary run over timber but has a bit to prove.
