Verdict

The trainer/jockey combination of Phillip Hobbs and Richard Johnson can win over hurdles at the first attempt with KEEP ROLLING. The Mahler gelding won a Warwick bumper in December, a race that has produced the third Green Dolphin to win for Harry Fry as well as The Captains Inn to win on a couple of occasions for trainer Ben Pauling. The six-year-old can hold off the attentions of the Dan Skelton newcomer, West Cork and the Nigel Twiston-Davies-trained Dino Boy, another making his debut over timber. Jatiluwih, winner of three novice hurdles for trainer Phillip Hobbs and jockey David Maxwell can give another good account of himself.
  1. Keep Rolling
  2. West Cork
  3. Dino Boy
