ABACADABRAS is strongly fancied to make a winning return in a season that sees him aim to become a live Champion Hurdle contender. Gordon Elliott's strong-travelling sort signed off for last term with an excellent second in the Supreme at Cheltenham and looks very hard to beat here. Triumph Hurdle runner-up Aspire Tower appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of Sixshooter.
