Another competitive affair in which many can be given chances but the TEAMtalk selection is Nickit who is from the Venetia Williams yard. He has shown enough over hurdles to win a race of this nature and he is sure to have been well schooled. Stand Easy rates the main danger as he had every chance when falling two out in a better race at Newton Abbot if his confidence is not effected he will go well. Twotensforafive is also worthy of consideration. He won a selling chase at Chepstow and at least he has racing experience over fences. Cloudy Creek won a hurdle race at Plumpton last season and is sure to have been well schooled. This gelding by Roselier has plenty of stamina in his pedigree and is worth a look in the market. Mr Miller is also from a top yard and it is interesting to note that they think it is worth persevering with this lightly raced ten-year-old he to is worth a cautionary look in the market. The remainder need to improve on all known form to take a hand in the finish.
