Burton Roofing At Auchengate Handicap Hurdle

Reacted well to a visor with wins at Musselburgh and Perth in the spring. Off since finishing a respectable fourth at Kelso in May. Possibly vulnerable up against some improvers on reappearance.,

Fairly useful Flat winner who has displayed promise over hurdles for Joseph O'Brien last season, close up when falling 2 out in Bellewstown handicap in April. Interesting on return for new trainer Stuart Crawford, who won this race last year.

Point winner who showed a fair level of ability when placed in 3 of his 4 starts in maiden/novice hurdles and his opening handicap mark looks workable.

Related to four winners and offered plenty to work on in 3 qualifying runs for Harry Fry/Lucinda Russell. It'll be very interesting to see what the betting makes of him now handicapping for in-form Olly Murphy after 7 months off.

Deservedly got his head in front over C&D in March. Creditable 6 lengths second to the reopposing Mack The Man at Perth (2m, good to soft) when last seen in May. Should be competitive if ready to roll after 6 months off.
