Verdict
MELTON MOSSY won this race last year and while he's 7 lb higher this time, hopes are high that he's up to the challenge on the back of an excellent reappearance. 4-y-o Ocean Conquest won at the track recently and is the obvious threat.

VerdictFlat winner in Ireland who showed fair form when runner-up twice in juvenile hurdles last season. Made the most of a good opportunity in a 2m novice here on reappearance a fortnight ago and way he shaped that day suggests this trip will be within range. - 5.

VerdictWon 4 times in first half of last season, including when striking under Eleanor Williams in this race a year ago. Placed on his next 2 starts and while he ended the campaign in disappointing fashion, last month's second at Ludlow was much more like it. Major claims. - 1.
