BLACK HEATHER hasn't been seen over hurdles for nearly 15 months but has been in solid form on the Flat this summer and is greatly favoured on these terms so gets the nod. C&D winner Rocky's Howya rates a major threat as he bids to extend his unbeaten sequence in claimers to 5, while Rich Belief and Allo Al Khawaneej also enter the reckoning.
