Formscan - SPACE VOYAGE has proved a different proposition in novice hurdles since being ridden more prominently and Olly Murphy's mare looks capable of completing a hat-trick. Hercules Morse got off the mark at the third time of asking when winning a maiden hurdle at Ffos Las in January and he looks the selection's biggest threat. Guy has some useful chase form to his name, but switches to the smaller obstacles for the first time since 2019 and may come up short.
