Most reliable hurdler acquitted himself with plenty of credit when in the frame in handicaps at Ayr and Perth final 2 runs last season. Enters calculations starting out over fences.

Has started very well over fences this season and posted a career best when winning 4-runner handicap chase at Perth (20.1f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Up 4 lb but still not taken lightly.

A three-time hurdles winner (at up to 3m) last season and signed off with a solid sixth of 13 in handicap at Ayr (24.3f, good) in April. Can't be ruled out now switched to fences.

Ended last season in very good nick over hurdles, fourth of 13 in handicap at Ayr (24.3f, good) in April. Fell on his sole previous run over fences and remains with potential back in this sphere.

FLORIDA DREAMS made a winning return over hurdles at this track last season and looks a very interesting chasing debutant. He could repeat the feat. Art of Diplomacy and King Roly have been making hay over fences for Mickey Bowen and seem sure to go well.
