Verdict

The form of GAELIC ROVER's hurdles debut third is working out well and he subsequently put in another good shift when collared close home by an odds-on shot over C&D at the end of November. Ruth Jefferson's charge is taken to make it third time lucky in this sphere, with bumper scorer So Proud feared most ahead of Who's Glen, who shaped pretty well on debut in this sphere at Musselburgh.
