Verdict

An interesting novice hurdle to kick off the card. KINGSTON QUEEN looked a useful prospect when scoring comfortably on her Chepstow hurdling debut last month and while her future probably lies back over further, it's hard ignore how well that form is working out, so she looks worth siding with to make it 2 from 2 in this sphere. Old Park Star bettered his bumper form when making a winning start over hurdles with a bit up his sleeve at Kempton and seems sure to improve, as does Lisbane Park.
