143-rated chaser WALK IN THE MILL makes plenty of appeal here in just his second career hurdle race. The 2m3½f trip latest when third would have been on the sharp side but this 3m2f winner over fences will be far more at home here and will take some beating. Truckers Lodge was well beaten into second latest in a Doncaster Grade Two but is nevertheless a very useful novice and he can go well despite a double penalty. Secret Reprieve impressed last time out and is also worth genuine consideration.
