VALSORPRESA has some fairly useful form to his name and didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Down Royal last time so can open his account here. Edge of My Seat appeals as the one to chase home Gordon Elliott's 5-y-o ahead of hurdling newcomer Blackcastle Storm who was fairly useful on the level.
