Dual handicap hurdle winner last summer who made a solid start over fences when second at Southwell (3m) last month. Open to improvement and the one to beat.

Yet to win a race but he's a fair hurdler and last month's Stratford chase debut wasn't without promise. Open to progress.

5/2
Latest Newton Abbot second in this blinkers/tongue tie combination was his best yet over hurdles and he'll be thereabouts if able to reproduce that sort of level now chasing.

15/2
Showed some ability in bumpers/novice hurdles but never looked like getting heavily involved when fifth (Jen's Boy second) on Southwell chase debut 19 days ago.

Forecasts

Jen's Boy (5/4), Easyrun De Vassy (5/2), Et Moi Alors (7/2), Friends Don't Ask (15/2), Alka Step (80/1)

Verdict

This looks a good opportunity for JEN'S BOY to build on an encouraging chase debut second at Southwell. Easyrun de Vassy offered a bit more with blinkers added last time and can give Nicky Henderson's charge most to do.

  1. JEN'S BOY
  2. EASYRUN DE VASSY (FR)
  3. ET MOI ALORS (FR)
