Verdict

BATHIVA showed good form on hurdling debut and he can get off the mark at the third time of asking over obstacles by taking the opening race on the card. The runner-up spot can go to Rococo River who was a novice hurdle winner at Exeter in May and is penalised for that success as a reult while third place can go to point-o-point winner Rebel Leader who is making his debut under Rules.
  1. Bathiva
  2. Rococo River
  3. Rebel Leader
