Hugely backed Square Necker has no hurdles experience — Huntin Boots looks the value play

Confidence?
How the race should unfold With no obvious pace-setter, this maiden hurdle should be a messy affair decided in the closing stages. The hot favourite, Square Necker, carries strong market support but has only run on the flat and is stepping into hurdling for the first time. Huntin Boots already has solid hurdling experience and arrives with a yard and jockey both in good form.
