Verdict

EVERAARD took a huge step-up to this trip at Musselburgh last week and gained his first success over hurdles. A 7lb penalty makes things tougher but a quick follow-up is on the cards though Ballymacduff, who came in for support, had to be pulled up when his saddle slipped. Cool Operator looked as though a longer trip would suit when staying on behind Pyracantha over 2m4f at Musselburgh and this should suit as it should Mac Aeda, who was having only his fifth start over timber behind Wild Desert at Doncaster. Currahee jumps and stays well but is 8lb higher than when last scoring over timber and though Sphinx has generally competed at a higher level he's now a teenager and hasn't run since October.
