5/1
He was a fair performer on the flat. He won a weak race on his hurdling debut and faces a stiff task here under his penalty. Nevertheless he has to be respected for a trainer and a jockey combination who have an excellent strike rate.

66/1
He showed fair form in his first two starts over hurdles but he was a disappointing on his first run for his new trainer last time. He is difficult to recommend.

Horse silk
300/1
He has been pulled up on his last two starts and faces an even more difficult task here.

1/2
He faces is easiest task to dates over hurdles. He represents a stable in good form at present. He has one on this course on the flat. He will be difficult to beat.
He won three races on the flat including one at this venue. He was a long way behind Nietzsche on his last start. He makes his debut over hurdles in the above average race for the venue. He is sure to win races but faces a stiff task here.
She showed little ability on the flat and is highly tried on her debut over hurdles.
Her form on the flat suggests she will need to improve significantly to make an impact. She took a heavy fall on her debut and is hard to fancy at this level.

Forecasts

Nietzsche (1/2), Project Bluebook (3/1), Cape Of Glory (5/1), Recognition (66/1), Prairie Impulse (100/1), My Brown Eyed Girl (200/1), Indulgent (300/1)

Verdict

NIETZSCHE would be the pick of these at the weights on his flat form. He has come up against two useful horses when runner-up on his first two starts over hurdles and he should comfortably take this for his in-fom yard. CAPE OF GLORY faces a stiff task in trying to concede 7lb but the trainer-jockey combination do have a healthy strike rate. PROJECT BLUEBOOK represents a yard that do well with their relatively few jumpers. He is sure to be well prepared but his flat form suggests he will need to improve a fair bit to beat the favourite. 1. Nietzsche 2. Cape Of Glory 3. Project Bluebook
