Verdict

SURE TOUCH was prolific over hurdles last season and is already better over fences this term, scoring with a bit more in hand than the bare margin suggests at Uttoxeter last time. He's taken to defy a 2 lb rise at the main expense of the back-to-form Stormy Flight and the returning Magic Saint.
