A tricky contest to start proceedings with unknown quantities on show in the form of point-to-point winners
Enchancia and
Port Of Mars who both look nice types on paper, but are making their return from long absences.
Bendy Bow made a very pleasing debut over hurdles when runner-up over C&D earlier this month, and he should figure prominently once again on that evidence.
Captain Blackpearl showed a similar level of encouragement when second at Uttoxeter last month. However, the selection is
THE MACON LUGNATIC who showed more than enough ability in bumpers last season to suggest he could take a race as open as this on his hurdles debut.
