Tom George: Summerville Boy deserves crack at the best

Tom George believes Summerville Boy deserves a crack at the best two-mile hurdlers after his exploits last season and he gets the chance straight away in Saturday’s BetVictor Fighting Fifth Hurdle at Newcastle.

The Supreme Novices’ Hurdle winner will certainly have his mettle tested as he is due to take on dual champion Buveur D’Air and Irish star Samcro.
