Action Replay's second to Golden Birthday here back in January is easily the best piece of hurdles form and he should take all the beating if fully wound-up but we might take a chance on the jumping debutant COHESION. Though not seen since unplaced in a Group 3 at Chantilly in April, he had smart form on the all-weather at the start of the year and was bought for 85,000gns to go hurdling. Lexington Law needs to improve on his two runs to date over timber but bumper winners Highway One O One and Larry are worth a market check.
