Sellingallthetime is 0-6 over hurdles but probably ran his best race to date when runner-up at Newton Abbot. He’s won four times on the Flat and this is a very modest heat. However, SEABORN was in cracking form on the Flat last year and is even less exposed over timber so it will be disappointing if he’s not thereabouts. Musical Stardust can’t be ignored after a pipe-opener at Southwell with his stable going well but this may be an insufficient test of stamina for Carpool.
