BILLIE FRECHETTE backed up an improved hurdle effort with a Flat win last month and Noel Meade's in-form filly is taken to follow up back over timber. Luker's Tipple has been runner-up 4 times in similar races and rates an obvious big danger. Dschingis Dragon didn't get far on hurdle debut but her French Flat form suggests she could be up to making her presence felt in a race like this if her jumping holds up this time.
