Like the two maiden hurdles on the card contains plenty of contenders who will be worth siding with in the future with Silver Forever looking a likely sort on her first start for the Nicholls team that have such a good record in bumpers here. However the experience gained by BALLETICON on his debut might just tip the scales in his favour and he’s given the nod as the selection. Plenty of others appeal either due to their pedigree or the yard that they come from with Shang Tang, Archirondel and Chuffy Chufnell a trio of debutantes that you would expect to see winning if not today then in the near future in this discipline.
