With his stable starting to hit form, Crucial Role may be able to step up on a disappointing hurdling bow at Ludlow. Alpha Indi's last run was his best and he should appreciate this stiffer track, but BARTON KNOLL ran really well on debut over timber at Carlisle and, with further progress on the cards, can get off the mark.
