THANKSFORTHEHELP was sent off favourite for the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham and, while he couldn't quite justify that support (better than result), he was impressive back in novice company at Southwell since and is well worth another chance to prove himself ahead of his mark. Nicky Henderson-trained pair Mill Green and Bold Endeavour should give the selection plenty to think about and there are several others for whom a case could be made.
