BORN SURVIVOR scored between the flags last April then made a successful debut over hurdles on soft ground at Warwick in December. He couldn't make the transition into Grade 2 company on a return visit last month but gets a simple opportunity to return to winning ways. Just Georgie has also won a point-to-point and shown some promise over timber though he ran poorly over this trip at Catterick last time. Lough Salt wasn't beaten far on his debut over hurdles at Catterick but ran a shocker on heavy going over this track and trip last month and connections will be hoping the ground dries out. Neither Violoniste nor Roxy The Rebel have shown anything to date.
