Verdict
KEEP WONDERING is the senior runner in this but has won twice over fences and has yet to finish out of the frame in four runs over hurdles. If fully wound-up, he could be the one to beat. Blue Ridge Hill was third at Sandown when making his hurdling debut in March and Killybegs Jet Lady won a point-to-point last winter. Big City Roller and Meetmeinthemorning have also won between the flags and Impatient showed ability in a couple of bumper runs last season.
