BORN BY THE SEA lost all chance in a better race than this last time out when blundering two flights from home at Cheltenham. If he can tidy up his jumping then he may have too much class for his rivals. Fenta Des Obeaux has made steady progress over hurdles but is still looking for her first win: She is well regarded and any market support would be significant on her handicap debut. Veneziano Springs has good course form but whether he is still ahead of the handicapper remains to be seen.
