CELTIC DINO (1) and ALEXEI (10) compete toward top of the weights and bring solid recent form. The first mentioned represents a trainer going well at present and can build on his promising novices hurdling campaign after gaining a smooth success in the Welsh Champion Hurdle at Chepstow last month. May confirm placings over the latter who since won very nicely at Ascot and holds obvious form claims representing another yard in good form. MIRABAD (16) won well here last season and cannot be ignored representing shrewd connections providing stable debut. Another to note is SERIOUS CHALLENGE (19).
