R P McLernon
Jonjo O'Neill
A winner of a NH flat race at 2m on good ground. Finished 10l behind Goulanes when sixth of 12 at 33-1 on his latest outing in a maiden hurdle race at Newbury over 2m 5f (good to soft) in March.
Wheres The Hare landed a 2m bumper here last year but needs to improve upon both previous efforts over hurdles now stepped up slightly in trip. Of more interest is Rebecca Curtis' BRAVO BRAVO, who was a triple winner around 2m on the Flat and warrants a market check on his seasonal/hurdles debut and first run for the yard. Stablemate Hodgson steps back up in trip after a disappointing Towcester run over 2m but is a potential improver with a first-time tongue-tie fitted.
