Nothing really stands out in this ordinary handicap hurdle where four of the protagonists are C&D winners. Of that group Rukwa in first-time cheekpieces could be the most interesting with the yard’s horses often running well at this venue, he does have race fitness on his side. Carry On deserves some consideration with his mark now easing from a yard who have had recent winners whilst Glan Y Gors will be a danger if translating his productive Flat form to this sphere. THE TWISLER is perhaps the most interesting though particularly if repeating his last hurdling run which came in a much better grade at Cheltenham, he’s still on a very workable mark.
