It was soft ground when Rigid won here in December and he was well beaten at Warwick when last seen over hurdles, but Mr Bachster went close when third at Hereford in November and is only a couple of pounds higher today. Prince Freddie was placed in a seller at Fakenham last month but will need more to figure in this, though Don't Panic could get involved with a repeat of his second at Taunton earlier this year. NAUGHTYATIZ finally got off the mark over timber when scoring at Stratford last Saturday and he may be up to going in again off a 5lb higher mark.
