Hear The Chimes won at Sedgefield in November but couldn’t cope with the weight rise back there last month. Galactic Power won off a 4lb higher mark at Ludlow exactly 12 months ago but the nine-year-old has had his chances this season and is proving hard to catch right. WESTERN MORNING is 0-9 over hurdles but won off this mark over fences at Leicester last week. It remains to be seen if he can carry that improvement back to the smaller obstacles but it may be worth taking a chance on Milton Harris’ charge, who has his ground again. Ermyn’s Emerald finished ahead of the selection here last month but is now 8lb worse off.
