Percy Street (3/1), Friday Night Light (6/1), Doitforthevillage (6/1), Summer Getaway (15/2), Ambre Des Marais (9/1), Duhallow Lad (10/1), Lex Talionis (10/1), The Green Ogre (12/1), Prairie Town (12/1), Final Choice (16/1), Tikken Away (25/1), Dun Scaith (66/1)

Now rated 139 over fences connections of Doitforthevillage look to take advantage of his vastly lower hurdles mark (113) back over hurdles and given an advantage like that it would be surprising if he couldn’t get competitive here. Friday Night Light is quickly switched to handicaps and given his useful French Flat form looks well treated here although his stable are rather quiet at the present time. Lex Talionis looks the sort to make his mark in more handicaps although he could do with a bit more of a test and AMBRE DES MARAIS may well be able to cope with a career high mark and pick up the winning thread again. Percy Street has yet to fulfil his promise and is starting to look disappointing while bottom weight Duhallow Lad is worth watching in the betting given his step forward last time out and handicap debut here.
