9/1
Dual winning hurdler last season but hasn't taken to chasing, yet to beat a rival in 2 completed starts (pulled up last time). Back over timber and 1 lb below his last winning mark, he's expected to fare much better.

2/1
Improved further to open his account at the sixth attempt at Exeter (18.5f, good to firm, 7/4) 11 months ago. Nudged up 2 lb and merits consideration provided he's ready to roll on reappearance.

5/1
Placed on 2 of his 3 starts in bumpers. Has progressed in each of his 3 starts over hurdles, latest when third of 10 in novice at Huntingdon (15.8f, heavy) 6 weeks ago. Back up in trip ahead of this handicap debut and market check advised.

1/1
Dual C&D winner last May who resumed winning ways with a gritty display at Chepstow a fortnight ago, responding well back under less testing conditions. Up 5 lb and would be in the mix with a repeat.

Forecasts

Beau Haze (1/1), Gallow Ford (2/1), Quickbuck (5/1), Kingofthewest (6/1), Franco D'Aunou (8/1), College Oak (9/1), Treasure Dillon (10/1), Crossing The Bar (12/1), Dehradun (16/1)

Verdict

Things didn't exactly go to plan for COLLEGE OAK over the larger obstacles, failing to beat a rival in 2 completed starts and pulled up when last seen 4 months ago. He's expected to fare much better back over timber and, now operating from below his last winning mark, he gets the tentative nod. Beau Haze arrives on the back of a gutsy success so he heads up the dangers, ahead of the returning Gallow Ford and Kingofthewest.
