In depth

Verdict

Miss Farage makes her hurdling debut having won a Uttoxeter bumper on her second career start but she may not be much of a price given connections and JIMMY THE DIGGER produced a cracking effort behind the race-fit Ashutor at Newton Abbot last month considering he hadn’t raced in more than a year. Placed in a point and a bumper last time, Lively Citizen should be suited by the switch to hurdles and River Nore hinted at some ability in a bumper on debut.
