Course winner who advanced his form when taking 6-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Very much one to consider in his hat-trick bid.

Refitted with cheekpieces when getting off the mark in 8-runner novice hurdle at Cartmel (22.1f, good) 21 days ago, just holding on. Can go well again back in handicap company with headgear again sported.

Forecasts

Belvedere Blast (2/1), My Friend Yeats (3/1), Matchless (7/2), Topkapi Star (11/2), Robert d'Ores (7/1)

Verdict

None of these can be ruled out but Rebecca Menzies' MY FRIEND YEATS rates just the pick of the weights on the back of his breakthrough victory at Cartmel so edges the vote from hat-trick seeking Matchless. Both Robert d'Ores and Belvedere Blast can have a say too.
