BROTHER TEDD won a Huntingdon bumper in December and reappeared over hurdles at Fontwell where he was going strongly when falling two out. He should be good enough to see off these rivals though Coyaba was very highly tried after impressing in his first two bumpers and should make a hurdler. After landing a Huntingdon bumper in April, Run On Sterling made a successful debut over timber at Towcester for which he carries a penalty but didn't handle the step-up to this trip here last month where he pulled up. Ronnie Lawson didn't shown much in three starts around a year ago but given his connections much better is expected.
