Verdict
KOAPEY has shaped with plenty of encouragement in finishing runner-up on both starts over hurdles, and this looks an excellent opportunity to make it third time lucky. Dunskay has been underwhelming so far over hurdles considering his bumper form, but did at least show more second time up at Warwick earlier in the month and rates the main threat ahead of Saviour, who could do with settling down.

VerdictLooked good prospect when winning a couple of bumpers last season. However, shaped as if amiss on Ffos Las hurdle debut/return in January and, while he fared better at Warwick subsequently, he again didn't really see his race out.

Verdict£35,000 5-y-o, Order of St George gelding. Twice-raced in points (every chance when falling on latest) and shaped like a stayer when down the field on recent 2m Warwick hurdle debut. Probably one for later on.

VerdictFair form when second only start in bumpers and has shaped with plenty of encouragement in filling the same spot both outings over hurdles, going off too hard in 11-runner minor event at Newbury (16.3f) on most recent outing in December. Remains open to improvement and has leading claims.

VerdictFair maiden on the Flat (often raced freely) and from the family of a useful hurdler. Shaped better than on hurdling debut when third in 7-runner juvenile at Doncaster (16,6f) in December but could do with settling down a bit. - Unnamed Favourite
