Winterwatch (2/1), Lost In The Mist (9/2), Light Em Up Nigel (9/2), Hour Star (11/2), Grandmaster Flash (6/1), Culligran (11/1), Bears Hug (40/1), Always Force It (40/1), Zulu (50/1), Angus De Bull (100/1)

This represents a good opportunity for WINTERWATCH to open his account over hurdles. The 6-y-o shaped as though this step back up in trip would be in his favour when fourth in a big field at Taunton and is appealing with a capable amateur booked and first-time cheekpieces enlisted. Handicap debutants Lost In The Mist and Hour Star appear the most likely to make a race of it with the selection, given that Light Em Up Nigel is returning from a 17-month absence.
