WALKINTHEWOODS produced easily his best effort yet over hurdles when finishing well for second over shorter at Ffos Las 17 days ago and, given he's unexposed at this sort of trip, could well be worth siding with to build on that now. Handicap-debutant Keplerian rates a likely improver and is also worth a look, along with Immortal Flame.
