Verdict

Very testing conditions are expected following a deluge of rainfall in the Northumberland area since Sunday, and the Perth winner ENEKO is best placed to take advantage of the weather. This ex-French racer sluiced through the mud on his UK debut, and whilst seemingly below par in the Wensleydale (Listed) Juvenile Hurdle at Wetherby earlier this month, represents connections who have regularly been amongst the winners at Hexham this autumn. Sedgefield winner Level Of Intensity is the likeliest danger for Devon based handler Nigel Hawke; who has also recently made Hexham a relatively happy hunting ground.
