Tommy Rapper (5/6), Seaston Spirit (9/2), Sergeant Brody (6/1), Coeur Pensif (13/2), Transpennine Star (8/1), Lara Trot (33/1)
Only a small field go to post for this novices’ hurdle but it provides an interesting for all that. Tommy Rapper who has a rating of 130 undoubtedly sets the standard but he has been beaten here once before and a small field affair may not be ideal for this quirky sort. For that reason the other penalised runner SEASTON SPIRIT is given the narrow vote in a situation that may just suit him better. With the Ben Pauling yard in good form Coeur Pensif is expected to step forward and he could be battling out the third place spot with Transpennine Star who should come on for his hurdles debut.
