Verdict

Point-to-point winner GIVEGA looked a potentially smart recruit to hurdling when scoring at Lingfield last month with any amount in hand. He can defy a penalty and land this contest for the third time in succession for Gary Moore. Forest Jump’s yard has also won this twice in the past and the latter is preferred to stablemate Proper Twelve while bumper winner Rambo T ran well at Ascot on his hurdling bow. Hunting Brook is another likely improver on the back if a third at Exeter.
