RACING POST VERDICT

Way Maker tops our figures and sets the standard: a dual bumper winner who took the step up to this sort of trip in his stride when second last time, he meets this field on terms our ratings favour. Flying Ace, a progressive type conceding weight all round, is the chief danger, with Jetbob interesting on his hurdling bow for new connections. Way Maker is the selection.

Our Expert Tip

This novice hurdle doesn\'t look the strongest race on the card, with several runners likely to be more focused on obtaining a workable handicap mark for future assignments. Flying Ace gets the vote here. While he\'s unlikely to offer much value in the betting, he sets the standard on form and looks the one they all have to beat.
