Placed in novice hurdles on his two most recent starts including when beaten 8L on good-to-soft ground over an extended 2m3f at Doncaster in December. Interesting runner on return from a break.
Winner of four bumpers on turf in 2018 and has recorded three victories over hurdles subsequently. Hails from a top yard and is of interest having had wind surgery since disappointing in a Listed novice hurdle at Kempton (2m, good) in October.
Nine time AW winner including in Listed company over 1m2f at Lingfield in December 2017. Victorious three times since then and is a leading contender stepping up in distance having finished third over 1m4f at Lingfield just under a month ago.
19 race maiden was beaten into second in a 2m5f handicap chase when making his debut for this yard earlier this month. Likely to find a few too good on this occasion.
Twice a winner on the Flat including over an extended 1m5f at Chester (soft) in September 2018. Held over hurdles in recent starts and market support would be notable in this contest.
Huntingdon (2m, good) hurdle winner on debut for this yard in November and put a fall at Musselburgh behind him when runner-up over this C&D last time out. Worth a check in the market on first start since being gelded.

LONGHOUSE SALE won four times in bumpers and he can register his first AW victory by taking this race for trainer Dan Skelton. The selection is making his first appearance since wind surgery and he can get the better of Corrany who is returning from a short break. Third place can go to Building Bridges who has been gelded since falling over hurdles at Musselburgh last time out.
