Shaped well on his debut here last year and confirmed that promise with a win on handicap debut at Warwick last time. Smart prospect who should take all the beating.
Not won since scoring over 2m at Southwell back in 2015. Beaten at that course last month on return but entitled to come on for that run. Still above his last winning mark but may be up to running a place if the first-time tongue-tie has the desired effect.
Sole win came here in a bumper and finished a distant second of 16 at Newton Abbot on hurdles debut. Tailed off on his two subsequent outings though and well beaten on return in a point-to-point last month. Probably best watched for now.
Flat winner in soft conditions at Bath last year but yet to win over hurdles and there's not much evidence to suggest he's well-handicapped. First-time hood applied and she's consistent enough so can't be ruled out of landing a place.
Won four times over hurdles in France and only just beaten here last month. More to come for this yard who do well with these sorts and suspicion is that he's on a lenient mark.
Some promise on sole start in a bumper but unplaced on all hurdles starts and merely past beaten rivals when fifth of 16 at Warwick last time. Looks up against it here.

As You Like (6/4), Gask Ridge (4/1), Bambi Du Noyer (4/1), Princess Roania (9/2), Yes Daddy (10/1), Panis Angelicus (12/1), Catcher On The Go (16/1), Sue Be It (16/1)
AS YOU LIKE is completely unexposed and he won well enough on handicap debut to suggest he'll take a fair amount of beating in a follow up bid. Yes Daddy should come on for his reappearance while Bambi Du Noyer wasn't beaten far here last time out and is likely to be the main threat to the selection.
