Bumper winner Rattlin has the beating of Miss Macnamara on her fourth at Wetherby but needs to find more if she is to get off the mark over hurdles. NORTHERN EXECUTIVE looked one-paced on his hurdling debut at Wetherby but still finished a long way in front of Monbeg and he's fancied to open his account in this modest heat, though Azerodegree caught the eye when a 50/1 chance at Perth and would probably figure here with a similar effort.
