A faller on sole outing in points but offered a bit to work on when third on hurdles debut at Plumpton (3m) 3 weeks ago. This longer trip will suit and he can improve.

Related to plenty of winners but might need more time judged by his first 2 efforts last season (reportedly lost a shoe on hurdles debut at Doncaster). Steps up in trip.

Shaping up well and would've finished second in a decent novice at Ffos Las (2m) last month but for being wiped out after the last. Longer trip should suit and he holds leading claims.

Has made a good start, building on debut run when winning Exeter bumper in February. Didn't look the finished article again there and there is more to come from him now jumping.

Point winner who proved very green and was well beaten in bumper here 3 months ago. Tongue tie goes on for hurdles debut and well-bred 5-y-o could prove a different proposition now.

Successful pointer who has made a good start over hurdles, giving the classy Faivoir (won again since) a scare in messy race at Newbury (20.5f) last time. Big shout.

Forecasts

Will Carver (10/11), Light N Strike (4/1), Roko George (6/1), Belle Jour (6/1), Duke Of Chalfont (16/1), Tamgho Borget (18/1)

Verdict

There could be plenty more to come from WILL CARVER, who gave Faivoir a real scare at Newbury back in March. There probably isn't anything of that one's class in opposition here and he makes most appeal. Light N Strike is feared most ahead of Belle Jour.

  1. WILL CARVER (IRE)
  2. LIGHT N STRIKE (IRE)
  3. BELLE JOUR (IRE)
