LUCKY FLIGHT kept on strongly to make all on hurdles debut, showing a good attitude and a similar performance would make him hard to beat. Kingrullah shaped with some promise behind him and holds place potential. Walkin In The Rain also caught the eye on his first run over hurdles and that form should not be dismissed in this company. Wilhelm Vonvenster is the potential dark horse but is already proving costly to follow.
