        Verdict

        Hereford winner ANOTHER BILL defied a penalty to win over track and trip a fortnight ago and carries a double penalty today. But Nicky Richards‘ charge has little to fear from today’s opposition given what little they have shown over hurdles so far and can go in again. Grays Choice has won a bumper but was pulled up on his hurdling bow while though Tree Of Liberty has placed in a bumper at Market Rasen he goes hurdling for the first time. Point-to-point winner Grey Storm failed to complete on his debut over timber but Christmas In Usa went close over hurdles when trained in France, though has his first start since May.
