It's four years since Nouailhas won a race but he went close in heavy going at Plumpton last week. Join The Navy is inconsistent and has problems jumping though his best form is on very testing ground. Osmosia won here in October but that was on good ground and she's been beaten a long way in softer conditions in her last two starts. It's exactly two years since HEURTEVENT completed a double in France and though he's disappointed for Tony Carroll he showed a little more at Leicester last time and looks to have been given a chance by the assessor. The four-year-old Benability has shown nothing in minor company but makes his handicap debut at this very lowly level.
