Western Honour has failed to place in three runs over fences in Ireland but did show promise in a couple of those runs and will be fancied to far better here. But preference is for WILLIAM OF ORANGE, a very useful hurdler who probably came up against an above-average when second on his chasing bow at Cartmel. Oscar Ceremony is jumping fences for the first time but makes more appeal than Spinning Scooter.
