Verdict
Shanty Alley ran well at Hereford on his hurdling debut when beaten only three lengths and is preferred to Three County's, fourth at Warwick on his first start over timber. Khage was making the running at Bangor when coming a cropper at the sixth obstacle while High Acclaim and Moayadd are of similar ability on the Flat and both debut in this code. UMBRIGADO (NAP) cost £160,000 at the sales in March and showed plenty of ability when winning a bumper at Uttoxeter at the first time of asking. David Pipe's charge is related to winning hurdlers and may prove good enough in this.
