Hurricane Harvey hasn’t won for a while but reappears on a very lenient mark and Jack Hogan can claim a further 6lb even though he’s ridden a few winners recently. Kaizer won on the Flat in June but hasn’t pulled up any trees back over hurdles since. Grangeclare Glory won at Ffos Las in April but was well beaten off this mark at Cartmel next time. Thirtyfourstitches won five times last season and is worth another try in this higher grade while Tiger Jet bolted up at Hexham earlier this month, though has been hit with a 10lb hike in the ratings. Willaston also arrives off the back of a recent victory at Hexham but HIDDEN HEROICS was just beaten in his only previous run in a handicap at Ayr in April in between wins at Newcastle and Uttoxeter and he still has plenty of scope over this trip.
