Plenty with chances here and Start Me Up is likely to attract support again after a couple of decent runs though he's becoming expensive to follow and may be a short price again. BELORD produced easily his best form to date when an excellent second to Anshan Dreams at Tipperary and a repeat could see him lose his maiden tag over hurdles though Wordly Wise, who wasn't far behind, should be thereabouts again. Sicilian Secret didn't live up to his tall reputation last season but remains one to keep an eye on as he remains a horse with plenty of potential.
