Yoursomethinelse The Sneakster and Willywont He are three against the field in division two of this novices hurdle and the vote is given to Yoursomethinelse. The selection won well last time out when beating Larry Tirano, granted thid looks tougher but he looks a progressive type and under conditions that suit he is taken to win again. The Sneakster rates the main danger on his latest third behind Alexander Exchange but he has had plenty of chances in similar races without taking one and again he looks opposable. Willywont He is another that could go well as he also won well last time out when beating Global Challange but all his best form is over a longer trip and he is passwed over with this in mind. Of the remainder Above Ground is a well bred type froom a top yard which is in form and he showed a little on his debut will relish this longer trip and should be noted in the market but he may be at his best bonce handicaped and with this in mind for the winner we return to Yoursomethinelse.
