5/6
Fairly useful hurdler who improved again to notch a second handicap win of the season at Fairyhouse (2m, soft) 58 days ago. Double penalty unlikely to prevent a bold bid.

1/1
Left Newbury bumper run well behind when winning 15-runner novice at Huntingdon (2m) on hurdle debut in October. Beaten at short odds at Stratford (18.5f) since but worth another chance back at 2m.

Better effort in bumpers when fourth at Perth in August. Doesn't strike as an obvious type to make a winning start over hurdles.

Showed ability when fourth in Perth bumper in August but never involved on C&D hurdle debut last month. Likely he's more one for handicaps.

Beaten a long way in a couple of bumpers this autumn and likely outsider now hurdling.

Down the field in a bumper but he has shown promise in a couple of hurdle runs this autumn, racing prominently for a long way at Kelso latest. Open to improvement.

Poor maiden hurdler who would be a shock winner here.

Forecasts

Mig Des Taillons (5/6), Prince Escalus (1/1), Spark Of Madness (22/1), Diamond State (25/1), Bayfriars Bobby (40/1), Sweet Flora (50/1), Rock Rebel (125/1), Tooyou (150/1)

Verdict

PRINCE ESCALUS let odds-on backers down last time but is probably worth another chance, with the drop back to 2m looking as if it'll suit for all he was a 3m point winner at the start of his career. Irish-raider Mig des Taillons is the obvious threat.

  1. PRINCE ESCALUS (IRE)
  2. MIG DES TAILLONS (FR)
  3. SPARK OF MADNESS (FR)
