Hawdyerwheesht won two sellers in the autumn though has been running better in handicaps lately but Hartside hasn't won since 2013. Ever So Much is 13lb higher than his victory at Uttoxeter in September and Miss Macnamara hasn't run over hurdles since 2013, though she's scored several times on the Flat. Stentorian followed his victory in a claiming hurdle with a fair effort in a better race than this at Ayr but was due to race yesterday at Kelso. SNOWED IN has dropped to a decent mark and is the only winner over track and trip so gets a tentative vote.
