Tracked leader, hit 3rd, pushed along on long run before 2 out, soon lost 2nd, rallied and hit last, stayed on strongly run-in to lead towards finish op 15/8
Tracked leaders on inside, went 2nd approaching and hit 2 out, ridden and switched left between last 2, stayed on run-in but not quite enough pace to challenge
Song For Someone (11/8), Ch'tibello (3/1), Diego Du Charmil (4/1), Elgin (6/1), Quick Grabim (11/1), Zambella (25/1)
ELGIN saw off Ch'tibello in this race two years ago and he can make his first start since summer 2018 a winning one by registering a second victory in this Grade 2 hurdle. The selection can get the better of Dan Skelton's nine-year-old who can return to form having finished held in a Grade 1 here last time out while third place can go the way of Song For Someone who placed in a valuable handicap at Ascot on his most recent outing.
