Race Verdict

It was a promising hurdle debut from SCOTT LANG last year and arriving on the back of a couple of solid Flat efforts this season, he should be sharp for his return to this sphere. New Year Honours looks like the main danger if she’s tuned up for her return and Fermoyle could have a say back on quicker ground. [Phill Anderson] Source: Racing Post
