There are obvious question marks against the majority of those declared, so this rates as a very winnable looking Class 3 handicap hurdle. A number of the runners have witnessed precious little in the way of competitive action in recent years including the once useful novice Spirit of Kayf, the capable mud-lark Deepsand and the very noteworthy Irish raider Bold Emperor. Crixus's Escape will be suited by dropping back in trip (to 2m), albeit he is almost certainly high enough in the weights off a mark of 121, so a clear preference is for the November Wetherby winner CORNBOROUGH. He has possibly been left off lightly with a subsequent 4lb rise in the weights.
