Market support for Owner Occupier could be interesting as he returns to hurdling on a decent mark. Nether Stream couldn't be in better form and is on a hat-trick after victories at Stratford and Fontwell, though he has come up short in this higher grade in the past. El Toreros was only beaten a head at Fakenham at the start of the month and winning pointer Mister Hendre represents a yard that's in good form. BEAU DE TABEL makes his handicap debut and could be thrown in off a mark of 103 if able to reproduce his third to The Skyfarmer here in the autumn. The winner is now rated 139 and Liz Kelly has already ridden several winner for the Nick Williams yard.
