Arizona Glory, who looked a likely future winner over fences when placed twice late last year, reverts to hurdles after a poor run at Bangor in December. The former hunter BRAVE JAQ has been inconsistent under Rules but would have a chance on his short-head defeat at Stratford in October so gets the nod in a poor contest. Opine would probably have had a hat-trick of seconds if standing up at Lingfield and makes his handicap debut as does White Walker, who hasn't shown much in maidens. Givepeaceachance has shown some ability but is 0-17 but Old Jewry may do better on the drying ground.
