8/11
Useful novice hurdler and showed that level at third attempt over fences when winning 5-runner Cheltenham novice (20.5f, good) on New Year's Day. Ran well when third of 4 in Scilly Isles at Sandown last time and the one to beat back down in grade.

Dual hurdles winner last season and left behind his chasing debut effort when second of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (20.3f, good to soft) 26 days ago, finishing with running left. Could do better still upped in trip.

20/1
Gradually progressive over hurdles last season, winning twice at around 24f. After 9 months off, unsuited by drop in trip when third of 4 in maiden at Carlisle (20.9f, good to soft) on chasing debut 24 days ago, though has something to find in this contest.

4/1
Five-time winner over hurdles and made a successful start over fences in a Ludlow maiden (23.8f) in November. Well beaten in 3-runner listed event at Warwick (20f, soft) the following month but return to this trip should help (has had a wind op).

7/1
Won sole outing in points and looked good prospect when winning 2 of 3 starts over hurdles last season. However, down the field in 2 chases this term, in cheekpieces (now discarded) when last of 5 in handicap at Doncaster (19.1f, good to soft) in December.

Forecasts

Miami Magic (8/11), Wyenot (4/1), Elysian Knight (5/1), That's Nice (7/1), Thank You Ma'am (20/1)

Verdict

Preference is for MIAMI MAGIC, who gave a good account when third in a Grade 1 at Sandown last time and looks to hold leading claims returned to this level. The biggest threat could come from Elysian Knight, who promises to be suited by this longer distance, while Wyenot is worth another chance back up in trip.

  1. Miami Magic8/11
  2. Elysian Knight5/1
  3. Wyenot4/1
