Lightly raced ex-Irish 7-y-o who made it 2-3 for his new yard when making all in 3-runner novice hurdle at Warwick last month. Has a double penalty but still the one to beat.

Mastercraftsman gelding. Dam, smart 5f-9f winner (including US Grade 3), half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (17f-2¾m winner) Kyalco.
|
Travelled well in first-time cheekpieces when getting off the mark in a handicap at this venue (18.5f) last month. Looks the main danger to Fair Frontieres back in a novice.
|
Minor promise only in various company (including points).
|
Well held in a bumper but very much caught the eye upped markedly in trip when third on hurdling debut here, finishing with running left. Similar form at Hereford 3 weeks later.
|
Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hunter chaser (stayed 3m) Don't Be Daft. Pulled up on last month's hurdles debut.
|
Runner-up on latter start in points but very low-key start over hurdles.

Forecasts
Fair Frontieres (8/13), Earth Business (15/8), Lucky So And So (8/1), Crafty (50/1), Pencil (66/1), Glengeever (125/1), School For Scandal (200/1)
FAIR FRONTIERES looks an uncomplicated ride and he's a pretty useful novice, so is fancied to successfully concede 12 lb all round. Earth Business and Lucky So And So are the obvious threats.
