7/4

Getaway gelding who showed ability on bumper debut at Tipperary back in the spring and made second start for current yard a winning one at Newcastle last month, idling but always holding on. That's a good platform for hurdling.

Golden De Coeur (1/1), Get A Superstar (7/4), One More Stroke (7/2), Jake Stevens (8/1), Captain Potter (9/1), Final Edgar (20/1), Tanking Along (33/1), No I Didn't (40/1), Miss Raindrop (250/1)

Having finished runner-up in a brace of points, ONE MORE STROKE shaped with lots of promise when occupying the same spot in a bumper at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago. Sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut, he's selected in favour of Golden de Coeur and Get A Superstar.
