There's depth to this maiden, but HOMETOWN HERO readily accounted for a fair winning hurdler in a point back in December, and having joined Dan Skelton, he should be fully up to speed on this Rules debut. Tide Times sets the standard on his runner-up effort at Stratford a year ago, with Castle Robin another to consider.
