THE HOLLOW GINGE can follow up his recent debut success in this sphere by defying a penalty stepping up to this trip for the first time today. Confirmed stayer Ballyknock Cloud was progress in point-to-points last season and having won his last three starts in that sphere he can take second for rookie handler Jack Barber. Useful chaser No Buts stays this trip well and can claim third on his return to hurdles.
