Next Destination (10/11), Fiddlerontheroof (15/8), Golan Fortune (5/1)

NEXT DESTINATION was one of the leading novice hurdlers of 2017/18 for Willie Mullins and took to this sphere straight away when winning a Grade 2 at Newbury on his second start for this yard 7 weeks ago. He should have more to offer so is taken to defy a penalty at the main expense of Fiddlerontheroof.
