PLAY SMARTER KANSAS DU BERLAIS was a narrow fourth in a Listed newcomers event on hurdling debut and, having been picked up by Gary Moore (who has won this race twice in recent seasons), he probably won’t need to improve to open his account. Non Stop, who made a successful start in this sphere at Warwick a month ago, looks a feasible danger and Planet Legend is the pick of the hurdling debutants.
