This looks tricky as Sir Dylan is on a roll and the four-year-old Red Hammer has had just the four starts over hurdles, getting off the mark at Huntingdon in March. After spending most of the last two years in the Channel Islands, ROSSETTI was easy to back on his return to the mainland at Southwell but belied his big odds to finish second to Benissimo with Mountainside, Miami Present and Polstar all behind – he can go one better. No Ceiling has had a break but looks best of the rest ahead of Being Global and Devon Drum.
