Jonjo O'Neill's Your Advantage may be better than he showed behind the useful Trouble At Bay at Cheltenham last time but he is difficult to recommend on recent evidence and preference is for Watchful Witness, who gets the vote over Bella Bambina. The last mentioned is trained by Martin Pipe and is another top have been beaten by Triumph Hurdle favourite Trouble At Bay on her most recent start. Her overall form is better than that of Your Advantage though and she rates a bigger danger to the selection. Oliver Sherwood's Twentytwosilver fell four out on his hurdling debut at Newbury last month and the Lingfield maiden winner may be worth watching, while a market move for David Wintle's Migwell would be of interest. The one they have to beat though is Watchful Witness. Gary Moore's colt ran a race full of promise on his debut when a close fourth behind Tamarinbleu at Ascot. A reproduction of that effort may suffice.
