Verdict

Point-to-point winner RUDDY ARTICLE made a decent start over timber when third to Number One London and Paul Nicholl's charge can land this with normal progress. Only Gorgeous also ran well on his hurdling bow over these obstacles and Part And Parcel was not beaten far at Worcester earlier in the month. Mont Choisy landed a bumper at the same track and goes hurdling for the first time but Air Glider looks a bigger threat on his second in a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter last time.
