Despite the fact that Huntingdon bumper winner COLLOONEY was beaten on his hurdling debut he looks to be the beat in this novices’ hurdle with his conqueror at Plumpton (Brandon Castle) having won again since. Just Rocky has already promised a little more as he makes his hurdles debut and with the Venetia Williams yard in top form her Pink Legend is another who is likely to show further progress here. On The Rox and Extra Bald are two others who look to have the ability to contest the minor placings with handicaps soon to be on their agendas.
