A fairly useful winner in bumpers, SWAPPED didn't go without promise in a trio of novice hurdles last campaign and, with progress anticipated now handicapping for his powerful stable, he could well be worth chancing to come out on top following wind surgery. Great Ocean comes here on the back of solid placed efforts and is feared, with the hat-trick seeking William of York and Issar d'Airy others fancied to feature.
