Silvertown won a Navan handicap last Saturday but that was his 14th start over hurdles. Successful twice between the flags in November, Your Own Story went close to making a winning start over hurdles when a close third at Ayr but BARROWDALE won by a distance at Uttoxeter and the second has finished second in a handicap since so it’s difficult to ignore the claims of Donald McCain’s gelding. Burrow Seven has scope and looks best of the rest.
