Fair 3-time winning hurdler in France who ran his best race in Britain in a change of headgear under a positive ride when second at Wetherby in January. Poor at Exeter next time, though.

Point winner who has shown a bit in 3 quick runs over hurdles this year, finishing tired having made the running in the Uttoxeter mud last time. Tongue tie on for handicap debut. Could improve.

Steadily progressive in maiden/mares' novice hurdles here, keeping on in C&D event 4 weeks ago. Could have more to offer now handicapping.

Good efforts when completing this season, going down to stronger stayers over 25f at Plumpton 6 weeks ago, headed only late on. Well up to winning a handicap or two.

Winning pointer who shaped well on his third and final outing last season. Not really fired in handicaps 9 weeks apart this term but it's still early days. Suspect he'll prove to be a thorough stayer.

Chasing type who showed a bit again at Ffos Las 3 weeks ago (not knocked about). Could do better in handicaps up in trip, though mark probably not overly-generous.

Promise again here (19.8f) 5 weeks ago and that race has thrown up winners. Can do better now handicapping up in trip.

Ascot bumper scorer who ran well in Ludlow mares' event in December that has worked out. Not so good over C&D since but could do better now handicapping.

Scored at Fontwell over this trip in October but fell heavily at Southwell the following month and well beaten at Taunton last time. Up in class and could struggle.

HENSCHKE has made the places in each of his 4 completed runs in handicaps and is well up to winning one. This drop in trip will suit and he gets the vote. The Changing Man and Smoking Pigeon are a couple of others to consider in a competitive contest.
