KICK ON (1) tried hard when finishing second as a warm favourite here 17 days ago. He is a very accomplished performer on the flat, and with that experience under his belt, he can set the record straight with a win here. DOCTOR LIVINGSTONE (2) got a long way back and ran on strongly to finish fourth here last start when having his first start in this role. He is peaking at the right time, and he is good enough to take this out. Each-way. SCOTTY (3) has been showing some promise in this jumping role, and he will be having his third run over hurdles. He is nicely placed after a 3kg claim, and he should pick up his first win at short notice. BENJAMIN (4) resumes from a spell for his hurdle debut, and he is in the right stable to make an immediate impact. SUGGESTED PLAY: Doctor Livingstone each-way.
