Formscan  - The 2025 Champion Hurdle heroine Golden Ace sets the standard on her first appearance since chasing home Lossiemouth at Punchestown in May. However, she lacks recent fitness against BURDETT ROAD, who was runner-up to Jeremy Scott's mare at Cheltenham and returns to hurdling with strong credentials. Wilful was hugely progressive in handicaps last term, with victories at Ascot and in the County Hurdle. He has conditions to suit and may prove the biggest threat.
