SAUNTON SURF did notably well to finish second on her Ludlow hurdle debut 4 weeks ago, having been badly hampered at the first, so she's selected to go one better with improvement on the cards. Chosen Hero shouldn't be long in opening her account over hurdles, while Blue Baloo and Bishop Hill are others to note.
