DEMOLITION has done well on the Flat this year and isn't highly tried on his hurdling debut. The seven-year-old can get the better of another interesting newcomer in Destiny Blue, while dual bumper Anna's Arch sees a set of obstacles for the first time in public. Koo And The Gang ran a bit better than his final placing suggests at Uttoxeter and is open to improvement. He may prove best of those with experience as La Bacouetteuse was beaten a long way when third over 2m4f here 10 days ago and Momkinzain was unplaced in the opener at Kelso yesterday.
