J: Harry Cobden

T: Paul Nicholls

1m2f French Flat winner who did well for former Irish connections, in victory and defeat over hurdles; even better when winning comfortably on his stable debut at Sandown (soft) and it was only three days later he finished well held under a penalty (same mark here) in the Fred Winter, though that run was better than it looks on paper; this is his first handicap against older opposition and he's very much in the mix.

1m2f French Flat winner; won a maiden hurdle (yielding) in Ireland in October and continued his progress with seconds this winter in a Listed race and Punchestown handicap; even better when winning comfortably on his stable debut at Sandown on Saturday (soft), picking up the penalty that secured his place here; connections strike while the iron is hot and he merits attention, for all that Harry Cobden was aboard at the weekend but not now.

Successful on debut over hurdles and has proved very consistent since, most recently a rallying second in 4yo handicap over C&D when the only filly in the field; very solid, back against her own sex.

The Bellhop

10st 13lb

J: Freddie Mitchell

T: Gary & Josh Moore

Juvenile hurdler whose consistent form features two wins over 2m1f at Fontwell; ran creditably in 4yo handicaps at Sandown and Ascot the last twice; gives the impression he's ready for a crack at this new trip; likely player, taking on elders who are largely exposed.

2-4 over hurdles, the wins coming on good and heavy ground at Fontwell; dropped 1lb for finishing a 3l third on handicap debut at Sandown (soft) and there was enough in that run to believe he's handicapped to win again.

Like The Bellhop, both his wins have been at Fontwell (good/good to soft); however, he was well behind his stablemate when both were making their handicap debuts at Sandown and this 4yo didn't look straightforward that day.

Promising second over C&D (good to soft) on hurdling debut in August and he landed the odds when beating eight rivals on his return visit (good) last month; that was a workmanlike success but he showed the right attitude and is respected under a penalty.
