Not much hurdle form to go on here so looking at bumper races the best chance goes to Rodalko who ran well on both his racecourse appearances and hails from an in-form yard. Others with good bumper form include Bob Le Gaoth and Cowboyboots. However the horse with the best hurdle form and thus the TEAMtalk selection is Robert Alner's Coolsan who improved last season and ran creditably in defeat at Exeter 13 days ago. He will be hard to beat if reproducing that form.
