Nigel Twiston-Davies has done well in bumpers this season with ex-pointers and Brownville justified market confidence on his debut under Rules over course and distance last month. But he has a penalty to carry now and NICOLAS CHAUVIN looks an interesting recruit from the Nicky Henderson yard. He has a Flat pedigree and is certain to know what's required. Titans Approach has shown some ability and Midnight Spin, a half-brother to a 1m6f winner on the Flat, should have improved from his debut at Newbury and can't be ignored.
