Verdict

A number of these have been competing on the point-to-point circuit and Nobodydoesitbetter, now trained by Nigel Twiston-Davies, looks the pick of those. Country'n'western won on his debut at Carlisle in 2015 but was well beaten under his penalty at Market Rasen in April. Philip Hobbs has a decent strike-rate here with his bumper horses and GERTIE GETAWAY has a nice pedigree for jumping, though was only a cheap purchase. She may be good enough to make a winning start.
