The standout form horse is the Harry Whittington-trained SIMPLY THE BETTS who finished down the field in the Supreme Novices Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival in March. He looks capable of making short work of these rivals on the strength of an impressive maiden win at Warwick in May. His trainer has only sent one horse to Hexham previously, and that was when the useful The Dubai Way won a similar novice hurdle in November 2017. Others to consider for the places include Calach and Ex S'elance.
