Theoretically, Harambe should have the makings of a nice type for hurdling, and it was mildly reassuring that he broke his duck over timber in a relatively smooth fashion at Kempton recently. However, nagging doubts persist about his willingness to drop the anchor early doors, and he could face competition for the lead today from the risky New Quay and the hurdling debutante I'm Wiser Now. Therefore, he can be opposed with the C&D scorer GARRETTSTOWN who stays well and should find this race a far more suitable option than the Grade 3 contest which he contested at Sandown in March (pulled up).
