Verdict

AMERICAN GERRY has finished runner-up on both outings over timber so far (suffered cut leg last time) and this looks a good opening for Hughie Morrison's charge to make it third time lucky. Notlongtillmay refused to settle and that may have cost him victory on last month's hurdling debut so he's fancied to give the selection most to think about with a hood now applied, ahead of Wells Glory.

  1. AMERICAN GERRY (IRE)
