13/2
Veteran performer who has never really convinced as a chaser. Just the one decent effort over hurdles this season but he's not taken lightly down in class.

5/1
Won maiden/novice last 2 starts over hurdles. Resumed after a wind op with a promising second of 5 on chase bow here in October but has struggled since, his temperament now under suspicion after his last effort. Bit to prove back hurdling.

Resumed winning ways at Taunton in December but not in same form next 2 starts. Needs to bounce back.

7/4
Winner here last spring and added to tally back over hurdles at Hereford following month. Encouraging return from 6 months off when fifth of 16 at Stratford but ran no sort of race at Chepstow 3 weeks later. Back on track after a break when third over hurdles at Exeter and needs considering.

Forecasts

Tiny Tetley (11/8), Cooleenymore (7/4), Investment Manager (3/1), Magical Escape (5/1), Dans Le Vent (13/2)

Verdict

An unconvincing bunch but at least COOLEENYMORE arrives on the back of a creditable effort. Dans le Vent is next best down in class.
