Sendiym is best at this venue and won this way back in 2013. He scored off a higher mark over hurdles here recently and is not easily dismissed. Alys Rock has won twice over these fences this year including her latest outing. She’s 8lb higher today while MUWALLA (NAP) has been raised 5lb for his recent course and distance success when beating subsequent winner Vodka Wells. But that was his first start since September so there should be more to come from Lisa Harrison’s charge and he’s also preferred to Miss Conway, who scored at Hexham three weeks ago.
