80/1

18/1, eighth of 10 in bumper at Bangor on NH debut 30 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with tongue strap on for 1st time and this Milan gelding is no forlorn hope.

Forecasts

Can You Call (5/4), American Sniper (6/4), Tedwin Hills (10/1), I Shut That D'or (14/1), A Definite Getaway (14/1), Fame And Fun (20/1), Yeomen Warder (25/1), Lady Amy (66/1), Dark Duomo (80/1), Instant Gambler (125/1), Call Me Tlalok (125/1)

CAN YOU CALL possesses the best form on offer and also hails from a yard in good nick so is fancied to make a winning return back in this sphere. Chepstow-scorer American Sniper appeals as the one to give Evan Williams' 7-y-o most to do, with I Shut That d'Or looking best equipped to take minor honours.
