Verdict
Millers Reef likes fast ground and will be all the better for last month's run over hurdles at Kelso, his first for a new yard. But he has to give 7lb to the in-form CLOVERHILL LAD, who wouldn't need to improve much on his latest second at Cartmel to get back to winning ways. Sendiym is 7lb higher than when winning at Sedgefield last month but still looks the pick of the remainder as Castlelawn is usually worth opposing, though Panthers Run will make sure there is no hanging about.
