FILIBUSTERING created a fine impression when going in on his hurdling bow at Kelso and is well worth another chance to confirm that promise having found Aintree's Anniversary Hurdle too tall an order later last spring. Shabalko D'Herm looked a good prospect when scoring at Uttoxeter and should ensure Harry Derham's Flat winner doesn't have things all his own way. Both Diamonds Galore and Brookside La have better days ahead of them too and also need factoring into this most intriguing maiden.
