Butte Montana’s second to favourite Chasamax at Uttoxeter at the starts of the month is the stand-out hurdles form but Flat winner Decora is worth a market check on her hurdling debut as long as the ground doesn’t ease. SAN FERMIN also has a first run over hurdles but has had no problem landing the odds in a Market Rasen bumper earlier this month and will have had plenty of schooling. Jalwan is improving with experience and can’t be ignored.
