UPGRADED has really hit form and with the claim from his apprentice negating his recent win at this festival, she can continue her very good form. Eight And Bob is also on a very good run of form and is an obvious danger. Sbraase was very good in being denied a treble last time and likewise is a potent threat. Dinard Rose is another in very good form while Linger comes off the back of a hurdling win here and is another likely contender in a tight contest.
