Verdict

Itchy Feet easily won a bumper at Stratford last month and is an interesting recruit to hurdling but PANKO, a five-times winner on the Flat, made a promising start to his jumping career when second at Stratford. This is a slightly stiffer course and that will suit Alex Hales’ novice. Peterborough has won between the flags but has shown little under Rules so far but Bard Of Brittany is improving with experience and should be winning soon. Lazarus won on the all-weather at the start of the year but needs to improve on his two runs to date over timber if he’s to get involved here.
