ONEWAYWEST (2) was travelling strongly when falling at Wetherby 355 days ago. Clearly suffered an injury that day. On a good mark with earlier maiden hurdle form taken into account. Worth chancing. LOVERDOSE (10) finished second tackling 2m3 1/2f at Chepstow when seeking a hat-trick. Another 7lb higher. Difficult to ignore in current form. OLD TIME CHASER (9) has hinted at potential among maiden and novice company. Promises to do better switching to handicaps. PONCHO (5) also warrants consideration after winning on the flat 12 days ago. Looks fairly treated in this sphere.
