Harlem Soul, a winner on the Flat, hinted at ability here on his hurdling debut but ran poorly at Fontwell two weeks later and Colin Tizzard looks to have a better chance with Name In Lights, placed behind a subsequent winner here last time and second earlier at Sandown. BOOMBAWN (NAP) has had a wind operation since chasing home a couple of smart novices at Newbury in November. If the procedure has had the desired effect, he should make it third-time lucky over timber in this. Stormin Crossgales looks the pick of the remainder.
