Verdict

VALGRAND showed plenty on both starts in bumpers and will no doubt have been well schooled ahead of this switch to hurdling, so he's fancied to make his class tell. Can't Resist It is entitled to improve on his opening effort in this sphere at Huntingdon, while Came From Nowhere was quite impressive in a Taunton bumper last month and warrants respect, also.
