Sir Frank Morgan, a fair stayer on the Flat, got off the mark over hurdles when beating a sole rival at Exeter in April but doesn't appear particularly well handicapped. Mondlicht is proving disappointing while Hi Note has been below par lately but Antony still has time on his side and Easily Pleased has been placed off higher marks over fences recently, though is still a maiden over timber. ALLA SVELTA is also better known as a chaser but has won off a higher mark than this over hurdles and finished ahead of Osgood and Hoist The Colours here last month. He gets the nod as Tuffstuff's Newton Abbot third should be taken with a pinch of salt.
