Pitched into a good race on debut over hurdles it was no surprise to see WEST WARHORSE need the experience. He quickly improved on that to open his account at Fakenham last time though and was impressive with how he bounded clear. He almost certainly has more to come and as long as the drop back to 2 miles doesn't go against him he should follow up. Grand Albert was only beaten half a length in a bumper on debut under Rules and if improving now hurdling could be the danger.

That was a massive run from THREE CARD BRAG on chase debut at Fairyhouse. He found only Corbetts Cross too strong and that rival has franked the form since chasing home Granceclare West next time out. He is sure to build on that and under likely aggressive tactics could easily make all here. He did well over hurdles and has a lot of potential now over a fence. Monty's Star was a place behind the selection in third last time and is the obvious threat to him.
