Good Value almost refused to race here last time and ended up well beaten behind Fuse Wire - he looks one to be wary of. Key To Milan could be interesting, however, given he won easily over track and trip in August. Hija has only run twice over hurdles and won on the course on her debut while Regal One looks well treated on his reappearance, though is better over fences. Dont Call Me Oscar appears to have lost a bit of confidence while Minneapolis has been struggling on the Flat. ARCHIE RICE didn't beat much at Fontwell last time but that was still an improved effort and he could be capable of going in again off a 7lb higher mark.
