HARD FROST bettered his hurdles form at the first attempt over fences when runner-up at Market Rasen 15 days ago, closing all the way to the line, and he is open to progress now back up in trip. The 6-y-o is taken to see off the challenge of Ithaka, who showed improved form when scoring over hurdles here last time, with Broadoak the pick of the remainder.
