        Verdict

        Boolavard King sets the standard on hurdling form with a decent second at Southwell last time, whilst Britanio Bello and bumper winner, Beatu, could also contend. Space Oddity has been off for over 500 days after finishing second of three in a French hurdle but has joined Harry Fry and has to be of interest. CHOCCA WOCCA is another back after an absence but looked a very promising sort in bumpers last year, including a fine second in Listed grade. She's hopefully ready to go and will take some beating if equally adept over timber.
