Forth Bridge took a step in the right direction last time out and would have an excellent chance on his best form, but the one to side with could be CAPITAINE. Capable of competing at the highest level as a novice hurdler he now returns to this sphere from a novice chase campaign and now making his first appearance in a handicap of any kind could be able to defy this mark. Amour De Nuit should enjoy conditions and is another for the shortlist.
- Capitaine
