Dual winning hurdler who got off the mark in this sphere in 2m handicap at Wetherby in November. Last of four at Lingfield last time though so needs to get back on track.

Useful form over hurdles (runner-up in Tolworth) and similar form over fences, though below-par fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Wetherby (19.4f) 43 days ago. Still not discounted.

Fairly useful ex-French winning hurdler. Easy winner on chasing/yard debut at Hereford in December but pulled up in Warwick handicap last month. Worth another chance.
