JUDGE EARLE perhaps exceeded expectations at Wetherby on his hurdling debut, but it was a good effort nonetheless and with winning form on the forecast ground at this venue, plus the potential for improvement, he looks a solid selection. Despite not having jumped a hurdle in public, Court Liability is feared, especially now stepped up to this trip after his bumper success. Cloth Cap, Jack Devine and Katy Royal are likely to be the ones battling for minor honours.
