It’s more than two years since The Ogle Gogle Man ran over hurdles but he does have a higher rating over fences, though is having a first start for new connections. Dequall won at Hexham in October but didn’t run up that form in two subsequent outings at the Northumberland track. MADE FOR YOU hasn’t finished out of the frame in any of his last five runs over hurdles and this looks a good opportunity for Olly Murphy’s charge to get his head back in front as he’s been dropped a further pound since his latest third at Fakenham where he was on and off the bridle.
