LUNAR OCEAN (8) has placed second twice since returning from a break at Market Rasen and Huntingdon. Can find winning form if on that rich vein of form. Leading contender. GAVROCHE D'ALLIER (4) makes his first start in 602 days over the bigger obstacles. Picked up by a top yard and could make a good reappearance if repeating the fourth at Plumpton jumping hurdles last time. JUMPER MADRIK (7) has not impressed in three starts finishing more than 50L behind the winner each time. Will need to produce a career best to find a place. LIBOR LAD (3) needs to replicate the runner-up effort at Stratford-on-Avon to make a claim.
