Seelotmorebusiness goes hurdling after a winning start to his career in a Ffos Las bumper last month. Given the form of his yard, he’ll be popular with punter but SMURPHY ENKI could temporarily stall the Paul Nicholls’ bandwagon. Chris Gordon’s gelding also made a winning start in bumpers, at Wincanton in March, and ran a cracker under a penalty at Cheltenham last month. He has pointing experience so a switch to hurdles should seem him in an even better light. Getouttamydreams was an eye-catcher on debut here last month and also has plenty of scope.
