Verdict

An interesting curtain-raiser and with easy Ffos Las winner Noble Robin and Hexham scorer Silva Eclipse both penalised and potentially vulnerable in testing ground, it could be worth chancing hurdling debutante TRUCKERS LODGE. The Tom George string remains in good form and this six-year-old won well in a Chepstow bumper on good ground. An extra half mile should be ideal for now, while both sire and dam won on very testing ground, so he is likely to be able to handle it. Quest For Life looks a danger now stepped up in trip after doing some good work at the business end when runner-up here last time.
