A little bit of a mixed bag here and those with chasing form already in the book are hardly the most convincing bunch. Wilberdragon ran a fair race on his return but he’s had plenty of chances in races like this as has Favorito Buck’s although he might just be best caught fresh. Boagrius is worth looking at in the market on his debut for his new yard but he’s hardly one to set the pulse racing on his hurdles form. Gold Mountain should be able to win races off this mark but has an absence to overcome with Compadre respected if his last effort has taken the fizz out of him. NEVER LEARN makes his debut over fences in this but his hurdles form suggested he could win off this mark and the break and a tongue-tie (first-time) suggests that he may well have had his wind tinkered with and might be capable of better.
