BOYLES HILL made an encouraging start to his hurdle career when third at Ffos Las in May and, with that form working out well, he's narrowly preferred to Deploy To Spy, who was still in contention when brought down at the second last on his hurdling debut 17 days ago. Cornamona possibly needed the run on her recent comeback and could be the one to fill the places.
