RACING POST VERDICT
C&D scorer DOUBLE DIGITS (nap) signalled he is ready to strike again when second at Hexham (form franked) and gets the nod here.
Racing Post Pick
Double Digits
Our Expert Tip
The last time SIMPLE STAR ran over hurdles he won well from the front and after getting fit again on the flat still looks well in at the weights off a mark of 107.
I’ve got a good feeling that if he runs from the front like his last hurdle win then SIMPLE STAR will be tough to peg back and gets the vote here.
