Verdict

SPORTING ACE has taken well to hurdles and is fancied to resume winning ways on the back of his excellent second here 3 weeks ago. Handicap debutant Keable rates a big threat if, as expected, building on previous efforts over this longer trip. In-form maiden Halifax appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
