Arcadian Sea was second in a similar race at Market Rasen in June but is 3lb higher. Glendun has been well beaten in all four runs over hurdles while Yorbelucky was still beaten 31 lengths when second at Market Rasen last month. Dan Gun is woefully out of sorts and Scottsdale also requires improvement. TURNBURY was a close fourth here last October when 4lb higher. He’s fit from the Flat and this won’t take much winning.
