4/9
Point/bumper winner who quickly made up into a borderline useful novice hurdler last season. Already better over fences, winning both completed starts, and he's open to further improvement. Obvious claims.

7/2
Off mark over hurdles on final start last season and has made a very good start to his chase career, improving again to stretch his unbeaten record over fences to 5 at Aintree last time. Moves out of handicaps after 118 days off.

Yet to win over fences but he posted good third in Ultima Handicap at the Cheltenham Festival in March. Disappointing on last two outings, though.

Forecasts

Bold Endeavour (4/9), Kinondo Kwetu (7/2), Oscar Elite (6/1), Jay Jay Reilly (8/1)

Verdict

BOLD ENDEAVOUR has been impressive the last twice and there's room for further improvement, so he's an obvious choice ahead of Kinondo Kwetu, who was also on the up when last seen in the autumn.

  1. Bold Endeavour4/9
  2. Kinondo Kwetu7/2
