25/1
Fairly useful hurdler who signed off for Thomas Mullins with a win at Fairyhouse a year ago. Not seen since, and might need the run.

9/2
Fairly useful sort who was back to form when fourth in a novice at Cheltenham and is fairly treated back in handicap company. Merits respect.

1/1
Useful Flat performer who won easily twice in the spring before a solid showing in a handicap at Aintree. Disappointing at Sandown on latest outing but can get back on the up after 6 months off.

50/1
Useful at one time for Willie Mullins but offered little in 4 starts for Patrick Griffin and raced too freely on debut for current yard in a handicap hurdle at Hexham 169 days ago. Bit to prove.

7/4
Fairly useful bumper winner who found some improvement from his hurdling bow when second of 6 in novice at Perth (20.2f, good) 124 days ago. May do better now sent handicapping.

Forecasts

Whizz Kid (1/1), Holmes St Georges (7/4), Wild Shot (9/2), Vocal Duke (5/1), Excelcius (25/1), Antey (50/1)

Verdict

WHIZZ KID is still unexposed and seems likely to resume progress fresh from a 6-month break, so he gets the nod. Irish-representatives Wild Shot and Holmes St Georges also have plenty to recommend them.
