MARSIAC (2) landed a hurdle tackling 2m3 1/2f at this track last time. That success followed an earlier jumps victory and sets a clear standard. WELLINGTON ARCH (1) was last seen delivering a solid third among Listed company over 2m4 1/2f at Punchestown early May beaten 5L. Proven at a higher level and commands plenty of respect. LORIKO (3) brings consistent form having finished second twenty nine days ago in a 2m3 1/2f maiden hurdle at Ascot. Reliable profile. Consider. GOOD TO BE ALIVE (4) finished 0. 5L second in a hurdle tackling 2m at Huntingdon returning from a break. Improvement likely and a bold showing possible.
