Drew clear to win comfortably on hurdle debut at Musselburgh; the one to beat

Creditable second to progressive rival on recent hurdle debut and should build on that
2	Five Dollar Fine Bay J:Conor Rabbitt(7) T:Ann Hamilton	J:Conor Rabbitt(7) T:Ann Hamilton	157	—	33055-	101	117	109	22d	—	—	+3	18.7	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Placed twice over 2m4f here in winter and recent handicap form is respectable; e-w claims

Has made low-key start to his hurdling career but bumper form suggests he can do better

With good stable but his pedigree doesn't exactly leap off the page; best watched on debut
6	Monty Nevett Chestnut J:Henry Brooke T:Jedd Okeeffe	J:Henry Brooke T:Jedd Okeeffe	151	—	0687-	-	98	74	29d	—	—	-1	0.5	12.25/1	50 2%
Made fairly encouraging hurdle debut last month but is not the obvious answer here

Showed minor promise in bumpers but was well beaten when falling on hurdle debut
