Verdict

GOOD TRADITION has only won once over hurdles so far but he did land a jumpers’ bumper in March and has only found one too good in recent starts at Cartmel and Uttoxeter. He was second off this mark on his last visit here so may be the one to beat. Byron Blue might need this but Bright Tomorrow has the form to figure if forgiven a poor run at Worcester. Glanvilles Guest was successful upped in trip at Newton Abbot but has another 7lb to carry now.
