Hereditary held up towards rear, smooth headway 3 out, led next, driven clear, stayed on well

Misbehaviour held up in touch, joined leaders on bit 3 out, one pace from next, 2nd and held when blundered last

Brave Jo prominent, driven along and lost place 3 out, stayed on again run-in

Isam Top joined leader 3rd, outpaced after 5th, rallied to lead after 3 out, headed next, weakened approaching last

Mr Maxim held up in rear, headway 5th, hit 3 out, soon ridden and weakened

Lord Of Adventure hard ridden after 5th, soon lost touch

Barton Gate led until after 3 out, soon weakened

Halcyon Express chased leaders, weakened 5th, soon behind, tailed off when pulled up before 2 out

Another low-grade affair for this handicap hurdle.

HEREDITARY deigned to put his best foot forward on his first try at this trip and could go on from here as he won quite nicely. However the form is obviously very modest and he will have it all toprove again next time.

Isam Top is not the most straightforward of rides but was close enough if good enough.
