ATTACCA showed an excellent attitude to get the better of Master Chewy (shaped well in Betfair Hurdle last weekend) at Cheltenham in November and gives the impression there's plenty more to come now upped in trip, so he's taken to maintain his unbeaten record over hurdles. Springwell Bay and Persian Time are other promising types who warrant plenty of respect, though.
