Urban Moon failed to shine on the Flat last year but won twice in Ireland in 2014 and should be good enough to get competitive in a race like this. One Style is the only one of these to have earned an official rating so has to be considered while Three Ways and Mr Banks are interesting going hurdling having shown ability in bumpers. MISTER KALANISI could be another for Dan Skelton as he has shown up well in both starts over timber so far and this looks his easiest task to date.
