COUNT OF VENDOME (1) is yet to finish outside the frame in all career starts. Last seen placing second in a Bangor-on-Dee novice hurdle and holding winning course and distance form rates a leading contender. LEWISHAM GROVE (2) secured a good 2. 25L victory attempting a Newcastle maiden hurdle then failed to follow up finishing last of five in the Scottish Stayers’ Novices’ Hurdle. Can bounce back. BEN REID (3) was making first career appearance in a jumpers flat race at Newcastle almost a year ago. Interesting providing hurdle debut. CORSICAN CAPER (4) may improve having run seventh at Uttoxeter on first hurdle start.
