A race where none of the three runners can be ruled out. Slender preference goes the way of FAIRLAWN SKIPPER (2) with the Mickey Bowen trained Stratford jumpers flat winner not disgraced when third on hurdling debut at Uttoxeter a month ago. May come on for the run. Jockey Sean Bowen continues to be at the top of his game. Makes the most appeal. Evan Williams trains winning point-to-point recruit MINELLA APPRENTICE (3) who could prove the main threat making rules debut for notable connections. CALME OLYMPIEN (1) indicated a decent level of hurdling ability in France and could put his experience to good use.
