      Verdict

      There is plenty of experience on offer in this for a juvenile hurdle. Nicky Henderson won this in 2014 with Peace And Co and runs We Have A Dream, a wide-margin winner at Warwick when making all. ACT OF VALOUR jumped well and was always travelling strongly when making a winning debut at Newcastle two weeks ago. That form should be worth following and he can defy his penalty. The filly City Dreamer may not have the scope to cope with some of these but does hold Eragon De Chanay on the form book. Je Suis Charlie could be interesting, however, as he was useful on the Flat when with Michael Bell and new trainer John Quinn won this in 2011 and 2012 with similar types.
