Tends to go well enough in small-field events and has two wins over fences. Lost his way of late, and fell over hurdles at Exeter in April when last spotted.
Form over hurdles has taken a dip and starting to look well weighted as a result. Yet to win from five previous starts over fences though and risks attached with giving him the benefit of the doubt.
Won on chase debut in Ireland in February 2016, rather lost his way and only run three times under rules since. First start for this handler and worth noting in the betting.
SHADY GLEN scored in good style at Market Rasen last month and has since backed it up with a good show at Cartmel. He's on good terms with himself and can take this prize. Honkytonktennessee isn't a reliable character but got back to winning ways last time and may go well once sporting his new headgear again while No Likey and Hedgeinator are both nicely handicapped if able to produce their best work.
