Don Pooleoni and Sir Cool will need more rain to compete in this race but are interesting options if their favoured ground conditions come. Hes Our Lad is related to a bumper winner and the market will provide a guide to his chances. HEAD OF CHAMBERS showed nothing in his only start to date but the booking of Tony McCoy is a positive and Lawney Hill is 2-5 in bumpers at Worcester in recent seasons. Kartanian may be a big threat on debut as his dam was a Listed winner over middle distances.
