In depth

Verdict

ANY GIVEN DAY was set some very stiff tasks over hurdles last season but should enjoy better luck on his chasing bow if jumping adequately and can complete a quick double for trainer and jockey. Alba King has a good record over the smaller obstacles and will have had plenty of schooling but former hunter chaser Gin Cobbler looks to be facing a very stiff task at the weights having finished tailed off at Hexham earlier this month. None of the others make much appeal.
