Worcester third August Hill will probably start favourite for this but is no certainty as she disappointed a couple of times around this sharp track over hurdles. Mr Satco rarely runs two races alike and would have probably have preferred a longer trip so we'll take a chance on Charlie Longsdon's AZURE FLY. He would have easily been the best of these over hurdles and goes well fresh so an absence since May isn't much of a worry.
