Plenty of these have question marks against them, but COUNTERACT escapes a penalty for his recent conditional jockeys' victory at Plumpton and has excellent claims of making it 3-3 over fences. Chasing-debutants Evenstevens and Kala Noire arrive in good nick from hurdling and are in excellent hands so could prove the duo to give Suzy Smith's 6-y-o most to do.
