Verdict

HUNTING PERCIVAL was a winner over hurdles at Stratford on his penultimate outing and proved himself just as good over fences when second there on his latest outing. He's fancied to go one better on just his third chase start, with Easkey Lad, who was in fine heart before being meeting much tougher opposition last time, and the consistent Jony Max also much respected.
