De Tellers Fortune56
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-7| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson| OR:  117
Winning Irish pointer who opened hurdles account at the third attempt in maiden at Ffos Las (20f) in May. After 7 months off, took his form up another notch when making successful handicap/chase debut at Taunton (23f, good) in December and he's a leading contender.

Winning pointer who was 2-5 over hurdles (including victory here) and didn't shape at all badly on chase debut at Cheltenham last season. However, he has looked rather laboured since, in first-time cheekpieces when last of 3 in handicap at Market Rasen (23.9f, good) in November.

Runner-up twice over hurdles for Chris Gordon last term and went one better on seasonal/stable debut in a Huntingdon maiden (25f, soft). Pulled up sent chasing at Ffos Las (21.5f, heavy) last time, but it's too early to be writing off this former point winner.

Much improved switched to fences with cheekpieces applied, easily getting off the mark in handicap at Market Rasen (23.9f, soft) in December. Looked booked for second when falling at the last at same course (27.6f) last time and he can make another bold bid.

Age: 9|  Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: Miss R Curtis| OR:  112| D
Point winner who was off 2½ years prior to last season, building on his hurdling debut effort to win a Chepstow maiden (19.5f) last January. However, pulled up in an Exeter handicap (23.1f, heavy) the following month and off again since ahead of his chase bow.

Forecasts

De Tellers Fortune (5/4), Kelce (11/4), Saladins Son (11/2), House Of Stories (13/2), Moon Hunter (8/1)

Verdict

DE TELLERS FORTUNE bettered his hurdles form at the first attempt sent chasing when winning at Taunton on return, form boosted by the runner-up scoring next time, so he looks to hold leading claims with further progress to come. Kelce was in the process of running well when falling on his latest outing and is feared most, ahead of Saladins Son.
