GUSTAVIAN is prone to making the odd error over fences, but he is easily the most talented of this bunch, and is well worth another chance to open his account in this sphere. He would have probably won at Ffos Las last time but for making quite a bad mid-race blunder, finishing with a flourish when it was all too late. The step up to three miles may help his jumping and he is still open to improvement. Beatthebullet was a bit disappointing at Newbury but is back at the scene of his last win and is feared most.
MISS FAIRFAX earns the vote having displayed plenty of promise when placed in races won by above-average prospects at Leicester and Ludlow. The winners of those races both followed up on their next starts and she can be expected to improve for this step up in trip, while likely conditions won’t be a problem. Eureka Creek was a place behind Don’t Rightly Know at Uttoxeter, but she conceded first run on that occasion and is taken to emerge as the main danger to Miss Fairfax.
The ones with experience don’t set an exacting standard in the maiden hurdle and, SERIOUS CHARGES, who finished ahead of a subsequent hurdles winner when a promising second on his debut under Rules in a Chepstow bumper, is taken to make a successful start in this sphere. French-recruit Tokyo Live is feared on debut for the in-form Venetia Williams yard, while Mini Yeats should be on the premises if able to build on his encouraging introduction at Wincanton.
There should be more to come from SEVENTEEN O FOUR, who was a dual winner on the Flat for Grant Tuer, and opened his account at the second time of asking over hurdles in a novice hurdle at Chepstow over Christmas. He pulled clear with a point winner that day so the form looks solid enough and an opening mark of 115 looks fair. No Hubs No Hoobs is an unexposed sort who may benefit from the drop back in trip and it would be no surprise to see him go well for the Colin Tizzard team, either.
SABBATHICAL won over fences from a 2 lb higher mark at Fakenham in November and he run well both starts since back over hurdles. He put up a good performance to hit the frame in a much stronger handicap than this at Ffos Las 13 days ago and a similar performance can see him get his head back in front. Branson Missouri rates a big threat on the back of her stylish Uttoxeter victory with Chantilly Haze and Templier two others who need considering in an open handicap.
This is not nearly so competitive as the numbers suggest, and FIRENZO is worth siding with given he has shaped with some promise on both his outings over fences and figures on an attractive mark too for the in-form Robert Walford yard. He remains open to improvement in this sphere and is readily preferred to Veteran Tudors Treasure, who can boast an excellent record round here.
FIRESTREAM represents a yard that do well in this sphere and ran to a decent level when second in a big field over course and distance last month. That form stands out in this field and he can deservedly open his account. Kitaway and Leissieres Express both displayed promise on debut and have the potential for better, while point winner Pimlico Point would need considering if the market speaks in his favour.
