Verdict

Arthur Mac probably didn't achieve that much in winning a modest Hereford bumper on debut in January, but he's fully respected on hurdles debut for Philip Hobbs in a race which isn't lacking in terms of numbers, but is so in terms of depth. However, preference is for the Peter Bowen-trained FORTUNES HIDING. The Pembrokeshire based handler had mixed fortunes with his runners here last week, but operates a 19% strike-rate (6-31) at the track, and there's plenty of depth to this 5yo's bumper form. Although a beaten favourite at Market Rasen in June, the winner of that race (Longhouse Sale) is unbeaten in four starts for Dan Skelton.
