A few in with chances but TOP COEUR took a step forward from his hurdling bow when third at Thurles in December and having switched yards since last seen, gets the nod to make a winning start to life in handicaps over this longer trip. Fellow 5-y-o Fight My Fire had been going the right way until his Taunton flop, so he's put forward as the main threat, with Castelfort seemingly best of the rest.
