CLOUDY GLEN was an easy all the way winner over hurdles on this card 12 months ago and is fancied to make it fourth-time lucky over fences. Reeled in close home by Chapel Stile at Carlisle (2m5f) on his penultimate start, a positive showing was anticipated at Market Rasen on Boxing Day (fell early doors). Assuming that he's none the worse for that spill he should possess the tactical speed/nous to cope with the challenge of the staying-type
Secret Reprieve, and in the process can provide Venetia Williams with an opening race double on the Haydock card.
