FormscanBy Michael Graham - STRIKING took second place on his last couple of starts over hurdles and can get his turn. Although he was beaten a long way over a similar trip at this track last month, the horse that took the honours had been placed in Grade A and Grade B handicap hurdles. Gordon Elliott's Nottodaybobo was placed in three of his four bumpers and is an obvious threat on his first crack at hurdling. His stablemate, Sea Aster, is a newcomer to note being related to several winners. Bonavena is a nicely-bred sort making his debut for Peter Fahey.
