Bernardon was a good second behind Cotopaxi last time out and that horse has gone on to frank the form and despite top weight he will be hard to beat despite top weight. Virgin Solider was a good winner at Stratford last time out and he will love the ground but he may be worth taking on at likely prices. Intox III was doing all his best work at the finish over this trip last time out and he will be seen to better effect over further. Belle d'Anjou did not take to fences last time out he will appreciate the return to hurdles but he will have to be on top of his form to score off this mark. Bohill Lad won well over fences last time out but he may struggle back over fences. Zurs should come on for the run after a long absence.
