This looks to be a fairly deep and warm novice for the track and there are plenty of options with Thisonetime having had plenty of chances it may be best to looks elsewhere given his habit of getting placed rather than winning. The Detainee caught the eye last time out over hurdles and should put that initial experience to good use here while Gunfleet would be another to pop in the mix although both come from yard’s that aren’t quite firing at the moment. Admiral Barratry has a very interesting background and could well be better than he shows so far but Alan King’s runners in this sphere are always to be respected and he runs CHOSEN PATH here. His point-to-point run has worked out well and along with runners like Battle Of Ideas and The Black Squirrel make this a novice hurdle to note early in the season.
