I'm Wiser Now is an interesting hurdles newcomer for Fergal O'Brien and Richard Johnson, but the Nicky Richards-trained SKIDDAW VALLEYS sets a reasonable overall standard. Placed on all four starts over hurdles, he found only the Gordon Elliott-trained Braid Blue stronger in a similar C&D maiden last month. If able to reproduce that form under similar conditions, this race represents a decent opportunity to break his duck at the fifth time of asking.
