Kendelu and MEMPHIS BELL (NAP) both arrive on a hat-trick but the latter was the more visually impressive here last time and she looks the one to be on as she gets on well with Isabel Williams. Milanstorm is 0-7 over hurdles but looks to be back on track and shouldn’t be far away. Hang Tough was in good form at the start of the year but seems best on heavy going. Pat Kelly has been lightly raced and the step up to 3m should suit so he is one to note despite being well beaten on his handicap debut at Hereford.
