Verdict
Truckers Highway couldn’t cope with a further weight rise at Ludlow when chasing a hat-trick and may find at least one too good again. GREYED A won over this trip over hurdles and it’s an interesting move by Richard Newland to drop the eight-year-old down in distance and fit him with a set of blinkers in the hope of sparking a revival. Gone Platinum remains in good form and goes well here so should also be thereabouts again while Rock On Rocky is eased in grade. Molly Carew still has scope over fences but Market Road is inconsistent. Beallandendall is the opposite, however, though still looks a couple of pounds too high.
