Southwell bumper winner HOKE COLBURN jumped poorly on his hurdling debut at Market Rasen and was eased off the home turn. He was well backed that day so is presumably thought capable of better and this looks a modest heat. Jennys Day won a Listowel maiden last month for Mick Winters but has his first run today for Katy Price under a penalty. Heated Debate looks woefully one-paced while Forecast was struggling when brought down at Ffos Las in May.
