Husband and wife partnership Sam and Jonathan England have their horses in rude health, and that's perfectly illustrated by the top-weighted NEAR KETTERING who swiftly added a hurdles success (Sedgefield) to his earlier win on the level at Thirsk. Assuming that he handles the switch to the AW, he's expected to figure prominently in pursuit of a hat-trick from just a 4lb higher mark. Of the others, the handily weighted Ad Libitum merits consideration while the consistent Croeso Cymraeg rates as noteworthy as a first ever Newcastle runner for the Worcestershire-based trainer James Evans.
