Successful over fences on his latest outing, POSITIVE THINKER can continue his good run of form and take advantage of his lower mark back over hurdles. He is taken to get the better of Robyndeglory, who produced her best effort of the season reverted to hurdling last time, with Mont Saint Vincent completing the shortlist.
