John McConnell has a 50% strike-rate at Hexham so the vote in this opening handicap hurdle goes to RESERVE JUDGEMENT, who took a step forward when sixth at Punchestown when last seen in February and has a less-exposed profile than the majority of today's rivals. Jimmy Rabbitte and recent C&D scorer Buto may give him most to do.
