The progressive HORSE FORCE ONE will take the beating. A point-to-point winner before landing a couple of bumper races, Philip Hobbs’ charge can make a winning start over timber. Whoshotwho was placed on his first start over hurdles at Uttoxeter and looks the main threat on that form unless Silver Quay proves above average on his hurdles debut having recently joined Jimmy Frost. Vet Cert can only improve having been well beaten over timber at Uttoxeter.
