Rebecca Curtis won this race last year so it's perhaps worth chancing PENNYFORAPOUND, who looked promising when winning a maiden hurdle in January and a point success at the start of his career provides hope that he'll do well over fences. Aye Aye Charlie has been in good form over hurdles for Christian Williams and could pose the main threat if he can keep the errors down.
