A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for HUIT REFLETS who arrives at the top of his game and can now add a chasing victory to his two previous hurdling successes. Dixie Cowboy has made a positive start to life over fences and this C&D scorer seems sure to be on the premises, while Zara's Universe and Jaitropaclasse also need factoring in.
