Verdict

IN THE TRENCHES has made a sound start over fences for his new yard and he looks to have been found an excellent opportunity back over hurdles despite conceding weight all round. Multiple point scorer Farfromaway can provide chief resistance with this increase in trip promising to see him in a better light.

1	Belatedly opened account in 19f Downpatrick maiden hurdle in June. Switched yards/equipped with tongue strap prior to opening chase account in 3-runner affair at Warwick (3m) in September. Similar form when beaten in a match at Wetherby since and this looks a good opportunity for him back hurdling. 1st Pick 1 In The Trenches Jockey: Sean Quinlan Trainer: Jennie Candlish J: Sean Quinlan T: Jennie Candlish	100	-	-	-	63%

2	Jukebox Jury gelding who is a 3-time winner in points and promise starting out under Rules in what was a disjointed race when keeping on fifth of 13 in a Carlisle novice (17f) 3 weeks ago. Significant increase in trip promises to suit and he appeals as the type to do better. 2nd Pick 2 Farfromaway (Ire) Jockey: Danny Mcmenamin Trainer: Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith J: Danny Mcmenamin T: Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith	98	-	-	-	63%

3	Modest maiden on the Flat and limited encouragement in 3 starts over hurdles to date, albeit with latest run best excused on back of a bad mistake 3 out (his rider did extremely well to maintain the partnership). Low-grade handicaps promise to be more his bag. 3rd Pick 3 Arcimboldo Jockey: Charlie Maggs Trainer: Mike Sowersby J: Charlie Maggs T: Mike Sowersby	83	-	-	-	6%
