Race Tip
BRENTFORD HOPE (2) is three from six with hurdles when wearing a tongue-tie. Delivered a decent runner-up effort on return from a short break at Newbury last time. HORN CAPE (5) dominated the field to record a 9L success making it two from two over course and distance. Thereabouts. PAY THE PIPER (1) reverts back to hurdling for the first time in three years and will be looking to add to his tally of three wins from four hurdle runs. Feared. ALBERT'S BACK (3) could prove dangerous to ignore if able to rediscover previous hurdle form.
