Verdict

HULLNBACK laid a superb platform for hurdling in bumpers last term, and on the back of a wind op, he's taken to strike on reappearance for his in-form yard. There's plenty of depth to this, with Pikar setting a good standard having been pitched into graded company last season, while Timeforatune is a multiple-bumper winner to take seriously, too.

  1. HULLNBACK
  2. PIKAR (FR)
  3. TIMEFORATUNE
