Barbados Blue is the pick of the Henderson duo on jockey bookings ahead of Avonmore and is a half-brother to winning hurdler/chaser More Buck’s. But HUNTSMANS JOG is a half-brother to Flat and hurdles winner Western Way and three others winning hurdlers. Don Cantillon has snapped up Bryony Frost for the Milan gelding, who can make a winning debut. The remaining trio all have experience but have yet to show much.
