Not Never (4/9), Throckley (4/1), West Drive (6/1), Golden Poet (7/1), Feu Ardent (22/1), Doodle Dandy (50/1), Johni Boxit (50/1), Ragtag Rascal (50/1), Ipflibbydibby (50/1)

Verdict

Top weight NOT NEVER looks capable of returning to winning ways dropping in grade in this selling hurdle. The selection saw off a useful hurdle on chase debut earlier this year and he can get back to winning ways by getting the better of his rivals here with Throckley capable of finishing runner-up on his return to hurdles. Third place can go to Golden Poet who can put a disappointing latest effort behind him.
  1. Not Never
  2. Throckley
  3. Golden Poet
