SOME DAY SOON (NAP) has to concede 10lb and upwards to all rivals but impressed considerably in achieving his hat-trick and is well worth staying with until beaten.

Prancing Oscar has a couple of wins to his name on the level and is worth noting on hurdling debut but the remainder appear limited on the available evidence.
