Victorious over an extended 2m5f at Hereford (good) in a novice hurdle in March. Previously held on handicap debut and is of interest on debut over fences.
Course winner was beaten 22L when runner-up in a similar race to this on good ground here in early October. Fell at Ayr later that month and market support would be notable on return to action.
Placed twice over fences earlier this year and put a below par effort behind him when 15L third at Perth (3m, good) last time out. Of interest once more.
Ten race maiden ran one of his better races when 5L third over an extended 2m7f at Chepstow (good-to-soft) on chase debut early last month.Leading contender racing off the same mark.
Maiden hurdle winner on soft ground in December 2017. Disappointed in two chase starts for previous yard and probably best watched on stable debut following a break.
STOCKBURN made a pleasing chase debut when runner-up last time out and he can go one better by taking this novices' handicap contest. The selection hails from a good yard and he can get the better of Ratfacemcdougall who is making his debut over fences. Third place can go the way of Petiville who was placed at Perth on his most recent start.
