Verdict

HUNTING BROOK (NAP) was heavily supported when making a winning debut for Gordon Elliott at Down Royal on Friday. He has been hit with a 10lb rise but comes here with a 7lb penalty and Danny Gilligan can utilise his 5lb claim so a quick double looks on the cards. I Am Spider Man ran well when sent to Kelso last time while Hutchie scored at Galway in September and his subsequent runs have been over fences. It is over a year since Birdsandthebees ran but she is lightly-raced and shown enough to suggest she can get involved in this.
