Fern Lord , Atlastaboy and the newcomer Wilberforce are the three to consider here with preference for the former. Jonjo O'Neill's charge was a winning hurdler last season at Newbury and made a pleasing chasing debut at Towcester when not given a hard time. The educational introduction will have put him spot on for this and he will take all the beating. Atlastaboy last saw a racecourse in February when showing improved form to land a Huntingdon handicap hurdle. He will no doubt have been well schooled by his astute trainer and looks set to be in the shake up. The dark horse in the line up is Wilberforce, this son of Elegant Monarch is making his first visit to a race track but coming from the powerful Nicky Henderson yard has to be respected. Champagne Lil also catches the eye on pieces of form but Fern Lord looks the one to be on today.
