Hazzaar failed to land the odds at Uttoxeter last month and this is no straightforward task. ARCHIE BROWN wasn’t given a hard time on his hurdles debut at Ludlow and shaped with promise. He is less exposed than Falberto, Spirit Of Waterlo and Unai but hurdling newcomers Santon and Lulu Baloo are worth a market check with both bred for jumping having had just one run in a bumper. Riggs can’t be ignored with his yard in cracking form.
