13/2
Back to winning ways when taking 9-runner handicap hurdle (22/1) over C&D (good to soft) 17 days ago by 1¾ lengths from For Three. Just 2 lb higher now and likely to go well again.

Useful at one time for Willie Mullins but offered little in 4 starts for Patrick Griffin. Remains to be seen if switch to new yard revitalises him.

Not the most reliable and below best at Carlisle last time. Others hold more appeal.

9/4
Returning from 4 months off when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, good, 11/2) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces now added and could be interesting from what looks a handy mark.

Forecasts

Bucko's Boy (9/4), Palm Beach (5/2), For Three (9/2), Drumconnor Lad (13/2), Frightened Rabbit (10/1), Applaus (11/1), Antey (66/1)

Verdict

Preference is for BUCKO'S BOY, who looks nicely treated and left the impression he needed the run at Chepstow last month. Drumconnor Lad and For Three look the likeliest dangers.
