The race pace in this Open Hurdle over 2500m looks to be good and there are some very talented jumpers in this field. NEVER LOOK BACK (6) won his only Hurdle run two starts back rather well. Can remain unbeaten as a jumper here. VERRY FLASH (2) is twice a course winner. Has had eight Hurdle runs for four wins, two placings and a fourth in a Prestige Open Hurdle. He is a top tier must in this. RUN JAKKO RUN (3) poor at last start as a Hurdler but has been to the trials since. Eight runs as a Hurdler for two wins, four placings (one second was in a Prestige Open Hurdle) and a fourth. Not out of this at all. LOCHWINNOCH (4) has had two flat runs to get fit. He has had ten Hurdle runs for two wins and five placings. Dual winner third up. Impossible to omit. BILLY BOY (5) he won his only Hurdle run by leading all the way. Sure to give a sight. SUGGESTED PLAY: Verry Flash and Lochwinnoch are the best two here. It is worth noting Never Look Back and Billy Boy are both one Hurdle race for one win
