Chaparral Prince only ran four times on the Flat and has joined the Henderson yard for his hurdling career. Mutanaqel was placed twice on Polytrack for Owen Burrows and is now with David Pipe. Angel Of The North won on Tapeta in July and looks the pick of the two Skelton runners but experience can be a major plus in races of this nature and NORDICAN BLEUE was only headed at the last at Worcester late last month and can go one better today. Bodes Well is a winning miler but was only fourth at Market Rasen last month and may have stamina issues.
