Not a particularly strong novices hurdle with a number of Flat cast-offs (many appearing unlikely hurdlers) featuring in the line up. Therefore, the penalised Parthenius should be on the premises for Dan Skelton with reasonable ground conditions underfoot. Hello Bertie can be given a chance if striking a bold line through his most recent Wetherby effort, whilst Rockalzaro appeared a much improved horse when switched to hurdles at Kelso last month by Donald McCain. However, in a weak race, a leap of faith is taken with the James Moffatt trained hurdles newcomer THE STEWARD. This trainer has worked the oracle with Godolphin cast off's in the past, and he acquired this once talented Sir Mark Prescott trained Flat winner on the back of an unproductive spell in Ireland with Dermot Weld.
