LUCKY ZEBO completed a double over hurdles in the spring and his pedigree is all about jumping fences so he gets the nod to make a successful debut over the bigger obstacles. He was behind Cardamon Hill at Tramore on New Year's Day but Gordon Elliott's charge has run very poorly in all subsequent starts including over fences at Perth when beaten 30 lengths. Pearl Of The West hasn't been beaten far in two starts over fences but will probably need more here while Hope Des Blins has now had nine starts over fences without winning. Construct and Transmission are others to note while expect improvement from Tony's Pet now jumping fences.
