Verdict
Catchthebug, Keep On Movin and Zaffre look the three to concentrate on in this novices' hurdle and the vote is given to Catchthebug. The selection looks to have everything in place for a big run after winning in good style last time at Uttoxeter when beating Pirouettes. He was returning from a long break that day so should come on for the run, and with ground and trip ideal he will take plenty of beating. Keep On Movin rates the main danger and the chances are she will try and dictate the race from the front. She is a game sort and if our selection fails to fire then she should be the one to profit. Zaffre was pulled-up at Market Rasen last time and although she has got claims here, she is probably better over further and for that reason we will take her on. Mark Brisbourne has a couple of interesting newcomers here which are worth noting in the market, but for the winner we will stick with Catchthebug.
