Race Tip

SUPER SURVIVOR (1) regained form after finishing last of nine at Cheltenham when runner-up contesting a Windsor handicap hurdle making seasonal reappearance. May go one better. ERNEST GRAY (4) is racing consistently with two wins and two placed efforts past six starts including winning by 1. 25L contesting a handicap hurdle at Aintree on most recent outing. Will be thereabouts. JALISCO STAR (8) secured an impressive 9. 5L victory in latest attempting a Uttoxeter handicap hurdle eleven days ago. Will be hard to beat if replicating the run. GWENNIE MAY STAR (10) makes some attraction from bottom of the weights.
