Verdict
BEBRAVEFORGLORY made a successful debut for Evan Williams when scoring over hurdles at Hereford. He can race off the same mark on only his second outing over fences and this won’t take much winning. Massini Man failed to build on an earlier second here when beaten 10 lengths last time and the remainder have failed to threaten recently despite the likes of Ardmayle, Lickpenny Larry and Torrent Des Mottes all sliding down the weights.
