Placed twice in bumpers, PONCHO made a fine start over hurdles at Wincanton when chasing home Celtic Art and this doesn't look as tough. Trevor's Lad made an encouraging racecourse debut at Fontwell and can only improve so looks the main threat though winning bumper Tapley has been racing at a slightly higher level and should get competitive. Invictus De Brion won a bumper here in September but has been beaten a long way in both starts over timber.
