Race Tip

STRONG LEADER (3) disappointed attempting the G1 Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot during December. Can bounce back having undergone a wind operation subsequently. May take some stopping on the form he showed when successful in the G2 Long Distance Hurdle making reappearance. CRAMBO (2) battled on bravely to land the aforementioned G1 Long Walk Hurdle by a head. Obvious danger if this does not come too soon. GOWEL ROAD (7) produced a bold performance off the front when second tackling the G2 Relkeel Hurdle here earlier in the month. Might get involved back up in trip. MONMIRAL (4) completes the shortlist.
