Race Tip
EXCELERO (1) posted a good debutante second finishing behind a future Grade 2 winner and G1 placegetter in a Warwick 2m juvenile maiden hurdle during November prior to a 12L fourth attempting a Cheltenham Grade 2 juvenile hurdle six weeks back. Big drop in grade and could prove hard to beat. GLIMPSE OF GLORY (2) showed promise when resuming when a good 5.5L third in a Wetherby 2m hurdle. Tackles same level and may improve. Rates highly. OPERA KING (3) ran with credit at Lingfield AW finishing fifth in a 2m jumpers flat contest during January. Holds claims on hurdle debut with progress likely. HONEYBUN (5) races for the in-form Skelton team. Looks one to note.
