Registered a victory over 2m4f on soft ground here on his penultimate start but unseated rider at the first in similar conditions at Catterick subsequently. One for the shortlist under a penalty.

4/1
Impressive 15L winner of a C&D novice hurdle on soft going in November but disappointed when 52L last of three over an extended 3m1f at Hereford (soft) later that month. Strong claims back down in trip despite carrying a penalty.
Signs of ability in two starts in bumpers at Carlisle late last year but pulled up with a slipped saddle on hurdling debut at Kelso (2m5f, soft) recently. Interesting to see how he fares in this contest.

Placed in a couple of Irish bumpers in 2018 and recorded his best effort in three starts since joining this stable when finishing 20L fourth in a 2m3f novice hurdle at Taunton (soft) last time out. One to note in this event.

9/2
Off the mark at the fourth attempt over hurdles when making a winning handicap debut off a mark of 102 over this C&D on soft ground last time out. Likely more needed if she's to follow up on this occasion.

EVANDER can put an early unseat last time out behind him to register his second victory over hurdles in this novices' event. The selection can get the better of Len Brennan who should appreciate this drop back in distance having disappointed over further last time out while third place can go to Kerrkenny Gold who showed improved form last time out.
  1. Evander
  2. Len Brennan
  3. Kerrkenny Gold
