Harry Hunt has become disappointing but Theatrebar has come back well from injury this season and Gulshanigans was only beaten half-a-length over 3m here last time, though was earlier beaten 20 lengths behind Miss Tongabezi at Huntingdon. Bangor runner-up Justatenner should be thereabouts again but Milord has gone backwards since his second at Uttoxeter in December, though is back on a winning mark. KEY TO THE WEST has won three times over hurdles and can’t get much lower in the weights so could run well at decent odds if the going doesn’t prove too quick.
