Nicky Henderson has a plethora of exciting juvenile hurdlers to choose from and WE HAVE A DREAM is as exciting as any of them. He didn't appear to enjoy the heavy ground at Chepstow last month, but he stuck to his task and held off the useful Sussex Ranger all the same. He's conceding weight here but his trainer has earmarked this contest and, on better ground, he will be a tough nut to crack. Act Of Valour was tailed off behind the selection at Doncaster in December but surely is going to prove better than that while Crucial Moment has improved markedly since his Warwick defeat in November behind today's likely favourite and is respected after back-to-back wins. Uptown Funk won over C&D on his hurdles bow and may improve on the form, while dual French winner The King Of May is interesting on debut for new connections.
