The winner of two bumpers; yet to prove himself quite so clever over hurdles partly due to his jumping, but he did complete here last time and gave a consistent rival plenty to think about; could be the answer should Stormbreaker not come up trumps. |

Joined present yard after winning a Stratford novice hurdle on debut in June (2m2f, good; 10-11 favourite, had already been given a wind op); that form has not worked out; no easy task with a penalty.

Sixth foal; closely related to bumper winner Windswept Girl, half-brother to point winner Wetbehindtheears; dam useful 2m-2m6f hurdle/chase winner; had wind surgery and this is a very belated debut, but his rivals don't set the bar very high so he needs considering. |

Flat trainer doesn't have many bumper runners and this Flat-bred 4yo won on good ground at Doncaster late last year and wasn't beaten far in a heavy-ground Listed bumper at Cheltenham on New Year's Day; will need to stay this longer trip but ability is much respected. |

Completed only one of his four Irish points; made low-key start over hurdles in May but he's shown promise at Hexham (2m4f, good) since including a close third last time, on his first run after wind surgery; should have more to offer in this sphere and he's in the mix. |

Completed only one of his four Irish points and was soundly beaten on last month's rules debut but outran 66-1 odds when placed over C&D (good) a few days later, and that piece of form brings him into the equation. |
