Bambi Du Noyer went close at Ffos Las in May but has had a break since disappointing at the same track in June. Matts Legacy has also been on his holidays but he did hint at ability on his final start in the spring and remains unexposed. Global Thrill probably has the past form to figure in a race like this and the same could be said of Maguire's Glen. INIESTA clearly didn’t get home last time at Uttoxeter over a much longer trip. He only found one too good over 2m1f here earlier and, despite a higher mark, can finally get his head in front over hurdles today.
