Lovely summer jumps card at Market Rasen and the Summer Hurdle (14:40) looks an absolute cracker with any number of unexposed runners contesting. Paul Nicholls pitched Brave Knight in at the deep end last October after a couple of facile novice hurdle victories but he couldn't live with Valgrand in a Grade 2 st Cheltenham and was put away for the winter after that effort. He has had 2 recent runs on the flat - firstly when well beaten at Chester on reappearance (but soft ground against him) and latterly at Ascot where he ran a nice race to finish 5th in what looked a warm enough handicap. He goes here off an opening hurdles handicap mark of 127 and that looks pretty lenient in the context of his neck vicotry over Dodger Long at Newton Abbot last summer. Bits of 6/1 available at the time of writing.
