BULLETS HILL ran well given his first realistic task since his hurdles debut at Uttoxeter last time and can build on that effort to add to his pair of bumper wins. Elusiveness showed more on her qualifying run here last time despite not really having a pedigree for such testing conditions, so looks interesting sent handicapping on quicker ground, whilst Miss Hunky Dory also strikes as one who should do better.
