Verdict

With just one blot on his chase career to date, when pulled up at Market Rasen on Boxing Day, HOMETOWN HERO should be opening his account over the larger obstacles today. Blacko placed in two runs over fences in 2021 but hasn’t set the world alight over hurdles this season. Extraordinary Man was 0-7 over hurdles but placed a couple of times. Nyoufsea was engaged in the 4.10 Hereford yesterday.
