8/13
Useful stayer on Flat and has finally come good over hurdles over late, winning maiden/novices at Stratford in late-summer. Just as good when second in Worcester handicap latest. The one to beat.

Bumper winner in Ireland last autumn for Tom Taaffe. Ran poorly at Limerick when last seen in March but retains potential now hurdling for a new yard after a break. Keep an eye on in betting.

Successful in an Irish point in May but down the field in a pair of bumpers/novice hurdles under Rules. Looks more one for handicaps after this.

Modest in bumpers/on Flat. No short-term promise on Warwick hurdle debut 12 days ago.

20/1
Just modest form when runner-up on second of 4 starts in bumpers. Remote sixth on Uttoxeter hurdle debut in May (final start for Nigel Twiston-Davies). Will need to have improved for a trainer switch.

Timeform
Fair at up to 1¼m on the Flat, albeit winner of just 1 of 24 starts in that sphere. Beaten 22 lengths into fourth by Percy's Word on Stratford hurdle debut so work on to turn tables. Hood added.

11/4
Didn't appear particularly well fancied at 18/1 but in process of making promising debut when unseating 2 out at Exeter last October. Off since lesser run at Newton Abbot but retains potential.

PERCY'S WORD has really got his act together over hurdles lately and could be up to giving the weight away. Kanukankan showed plenty of promise on the first of his 2 starts last autumn and it'll be interesting to see how strong he is in the market on his return for a yard going great guns. Irish bumper winner Any Givin Sunday could also have a part to play now hurdling for a new stable.
