The unpenalised for his Wetherby win BLUE HUSSAR looks to be the major player here but he might not have things all his own way in a race where there are some interesting sorts. Both Mayo Star and Tolethorpe who are making their hurdling debuts look to have the ability to win in sphere while Slanelough has shown plenty of promise in his hurdling starts so far. With Dance Of Fire and Lastin Memories also having shown some ability for over hurdles this race has a little more depth than the market suggests although those last two would be more of interest for handicaps down the line than the here and now.
