5/1
Guard Duty got the better of Hartington in a course and distance novices’ handicap hurdle last term and he produced a good performance to finish second behind a progressive sort at Newbury on seasonal debut. Emma Lavelle’s gelding is entitled to improve for the run and should be going close if doing so.
