Verdict

The perennial bridesmaid over hurdles The Steward gets the chance to chance to break his maiden over jumps and this must be his easiest opportunity yet but he has fluffed his lines on occasions like this before. He was good enough to run in Group races on the Flat but has shown nothing approaching that form over hurdles and with his stamina a question mark MORRAMAN is preferred. He may benefit from a more positive ride given that he was held-up in a steadily run contest last time and looks to have some potential over staying trips. The same could be said of Glenlora at a lesser level who can be expected to step forward on her Hexham run over a more suitable trip.
