Last time out winner ARBORETUM can follow up his Southwell success last time out by taking this off his revised mark. In what looks a moderate handicap hurdle he can get the better of handicap newcomer Chicksgrove Sprite who showed promise in a selling event two starts back while top weight Sirius Star is taken to finish third having filled the same position in a chase here in April.
