Touchedbyanangel comfortably beat Go Guarantor, who runs earlier, over a slightly shorter trip here last month though an 8lb rise makes this more difficult. SIEMPRE AMIGOS hasn't shown much aptitude for hurdling in five starts but has been running better on the Flat and looks capable of doing better over the obstacles so gets the nod. Lady Of The Sea hasn't won in ten starts over timber though found 2m5f stretching her stamina here last time after leading at the last. Authorative is 1-31 over timber and like most of the remainder has been out of form.
