Knocktopher Abbey has the best hurdle form of those on show and his two efforts at Taunton and Cheltenham demonstrated his ability over hurdles. However even on the level he did not race on anything worse than soft so the ground is a slight worry. Saying that there is precious little else on known form to give him a proper race and he is the TEAMtalk selection. Loblite Leader showed occasional good form on the level and it would be no surprise to see him go well here on his debut. Property Zone is one of the only ones here to have shown form on heavy ground over hurdles and looks the one for the forecast. Supreme Lass showed glimpses of ability in bumpers including on heavy but his hurdles debut here was disappointing.
