HIDALGO (2) made a winning hurdling debut with an effortless victory here on the first day, and this field is not much harder. On top again. INMYSHADOW (5) fell on the first day when heavily supported, and is a late nomination for this race. He must have recovered well enough, and he can make amends in this. DUKE OF PLUMPTON (1) was last seen battling away on the flat at Waverley and will be far more competitive over the hurdles here. Can win. DOCTOR IRIS (4) was runner-up behind the top pick here on the first day. A similar effort will take him close to winning this. MR FAHRENHEIT (3) is sometimes lacking late and he has first four claims in the small field.
