Verdict

DOMTALINE won the opening juvenile hurdle on the card 12 months ago by 25 lengths. Things didn't go to plan thereafter but he clearly goes well fresh and representing Paul Nicholls, who has landed this race three times in the last nine years, is fancied to return to winning ways today. Mr Harmoosh could be the danger as he's on the upgrade and made the well-treated Fountains Flypast pull out all the stops at Fontwell having earlier beaten a subsequent winner at Plumpton. Jockey bookings suggest Peaks Of Fire is the pick of Tim Vaughan's two runners but Jubail and Kahfre both return from a lay-off.
