ESKENDASH has done nothing wrong and was returning from a 100-day break when narrowly beaten in a Class 3 handicap here last month. This should be his day though Hatcher, a dual bumper winner, made a promising debut over hurdles here and is surely better than he's shown in his last couple of runs. The four-year-old Working Class, a winner on the Flat, has shown enough potential in three starts over timber to get into the money but Movie Set will need to get his confidence back after a crashing fall at Lingfield.
