9/4
Liari was a smart juvenile hurdler last term and managed to win a couple of Listed races, looking particularly good at Musselburgh. He didn’t appreciate the step up in trip last time out and an extended two miles combined with a 2lb drop in weights should facilitate a much improved performance.

Verdict
Aurigny Mill is solid but the one who appeals most is last season's smart juvenile LIARI (nap) whose sights are lowered here.
Liari

9/4 Liari,
5/1 Schmilsson,
7/1 Stream Of Stars,
