Westerner Point (7/2), Montys Meadow (4/1), Tout Est Permis (4/1), Goulane Davina (7/1), Indian Monsoon (10/1), Knockraha Pylon (10/1), Grand Partner (14/1), Admiral Brian (16/1), Josies Orders (16/1), Winter Breeze (20/1), Lite Duties (25/1), Realt Mor (25/1)

A tricky handicap hurdle in which top-weight Grand Partner looks likely to make another bold bid. Montys Meadow should figure over a C&D enjoys, while Goulane Davina should be thereabouts on her return to hurdles. But it is another horse reverting to timber, TOUT EST PERMIS, who gets the vote. He has run into some decent novice chasers recently and can run off a 19lb lower mark over hurdles. The first time cheekpieces can also eke out some improvement. Westerner Point looks the best of the rest.
