GREATNESS AWAITS has improved for the switch to Cian Collins, posting a career best when scoring at Cartmel last month. He can continue his upward trajectory (with headgear refitted) and is preferred to Coole Cherry who may be able get back on track following a break, while My Gaffer was successful on his only previous hurdles start here and has claims if seeing out this longer trip.
