A couple of these runners make little overall appeal despite admittedly being in early stages of their hurdling careers. Therefore, the focus is upon those with more untapped potential. It's Your Move was a costly purchase at the Cheltenham Sales in December 2016, and he would appear likely to step forward significantly from his bumper efforts now encountering the combination of soft ground, obstacles and a longer trip. However, CASH AGAIN sets a fair standard with an official rating of 119. He has left Paul Nicholls to join Ben Haslam, and will surely appreciate racing in much less competitive events in the North than he has done previously down South.
