        Verdict

        VOLCANO looks to have strong claims of opening his account having missed out by only a head in a stronger maiden hurdle than this at Ascot. A conditional’s allowance further helps his cause and he should be winning this with a clear round. Escort'namix was still in contention when falling four from home at Haydock though it was testing going on that occasion but point-to-point winner Sunday Session will know more today after a modest debut at Warwick last month. The remainder are difficult to recommend with hurdles newcomer Vivre Pour Vivre recording his two wins on the Flat back in 2016.
