Verdict
Hagree did win on the Flat but didn't stay much further than a mile and is making his debut over hurdles at a very modest level. Jonnie Skull hasn't been running very well on the all-weather but is a previous winner here, as are Neworld and KIAMA BAY. The latter has the highest handicap rating of these so is probably the one to beat, though he hasn't had much racing over the past 12 months. Kudu Country, Goal and Scoppio Del Carro are others eased in grade.
