Seemingly aided by new tongue-tie for new stable this summer, most notably when coming from off the pace for convincing C&D (good) success; not quite as good at Stratford last time and not sure to be suited by rain but remains very much of interest.

Both wins over hurdles have been over C&D, the latest in September off 6lb lower; will have benefited from his recent pipe-opener when fourth at Market Rasen (2m,good) and should run well.

Free-going front-runner who won twice over C&D last season (soft/good to soft), both times by wide margins in modest mares' races; probably went off too hard when well beaten at Huntingdon last month but steadied the ship with respectable Flat run 24 days ago; sure to be suited by return to this track but stiil needs to prove she can cope with a mark this high.
