The feeling remains that Green Zone will bounce back to form sooner rather than later on his favourite track and he can never be ruled out around here. Prince Khurram and King Muro haven't been at their best this term and The Banastoir needs to find improvement. Sense Of Urgency stuck on well to land a first hurdling success at Hexham and could well progress again now she's got the winning habit but WOT A SHOT has a course and distance win to his name and is the most battle-hardened member of the sextet. He has taken time to find his form this season but was much better latest and should be really competitive now off a mark of 103.
