Verdict
HURRICANE DYLAN was narrowly beaten in a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter last time with the rest nowhere. Kevin Frost’s charge can go one better as he is weighted to beat Quietly. The latter continues to struggle while Stay In Touch has plenty to find on these terms, though was placed here in December. Every Chance has only raced on the all-weather so far but won three times. He debuts over timber along with Colby and It's All About Me.
