I'm quite interested in Thunder Rock's entry in the 365 Hurdle on Saturday. He's not been over the smaller obstacles for a while, and is rated 7lb lower there, but he's 4/6 in that sphere, and this goes back to his novice hurdling days before he went over fences.

He's clearly shown talent over fences, and like many horses, he would have been pushed into that at the time, probably regardless of what he could have achieved over hurdles, but the Charlie Hall Chase on Saturday is a big ask. I feel there's a good chance they'll declare this fella for the graded hurdle at Wetherby instead and he'll go and win too. I'm not involved ante post, but I'd make him one of my best bets come Saturday if they stick him back over hurdles. See the final declarations tomorrow.
