Verdict

PETIT MOUCHOIR has won at this meeting in the past and can reverse Champion Hurdle running with likely favourite My Tent Or Yours here. The selection hasn't been seen in action since finishing third on that occasion and mistake two out cost him momentum when still leading. Of the remainder Arctic Fire is an interesting runner here as is stablemate Vroum Vroum Mag who took this race in 2016 while it will be interesting to see how Labaik performs at the start with a visor fitted for this.
