1/3
Useful hurdler on his day and the winner of three of his four starts over fences including in a three runner contest over C&D on good ground last time out. Likely to prove hard to beat once more.

6/1
Decent horse over hurdles and shown a decent level of ability over fences including when winning over an extended 2m3f at Stratford (good) in April. Below that form in two subsequent starts however but remains of interest.

4/1
Returning from a break when finishing third in a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m at Stratford (good) earlier this month. Bit to find with a couple of these rivals on hurdles rating on his debut over fences.

100/1
Dual point-to-point winner but shown little in four starts over hurdles to date. Well held off a mark of 81 in a novices' handicap hurdle here last time out and looks likely to struggle on chase debut.

Forecasts

Caius Marcius (1/3), Court Royale (4/1), Aintree My Dream (6/1), Kapoupakap (100/1)

Verdict

CAIUS MARCIUS was the best of these over hurdles and he is taken to continue his good run over fences by notching up a fourth chase victory in this small field novices' contest. Aintree My Dream drops in trip here and he can finish runner-up for a yard with a 50% strike-rate (2/4) of late while Court Royale who is making his first start over fences can claim third.
  1. Caius Marcius
  2. Aintree My Dream
  3. Court Royale
