The betting suggested Go Hard Or Go Home would benefit for the application of headgear at Hereford in March and he duly obliged. But he’s been raised 8lb and NET LOVE is preferred on her chasing debut. She also improved for the fitting of headgear when placed over timber at Warwick last time and is related to winners over fences in France. West To Crossgales has placed off a similar mark over timber and makes more appeal than See Forever now chasing while Lough Salt has a recent outing on the Flat under his belt
