Verdict

The race for the jockeys championship has recommenced with Richard Johnson making a super-human recovery from a broken arm and this low-key novices' hurdle represents another small chapter in the greater battle to defend his crown from the northern challenger Brian Hughes. On the form book, this race should rest between their respective mounts (both previous winners over hurdles) with the smooth Market Rasen scorer STRONG GLANCE favoured over Baron De Midleton.
