Lots of runners but COMO PARK still rather stands out from an opening handicap hurdle mark which could prove very lenient judged on Flat ability. The blinkers he wore to good effect on the Flat are now in place for the first time over hurdles and this longer trip should also be in his favour so there are plenty of reasons to be positive. Moonovercloon, Clifftop, Hereditary Rule, who is well treated on chase form, and Ms Agartha Yeats should be involved in the battle for minor honours.
