In depth

Verdict

Our shortlist here consists of Fairy Skin Maker, Bodfari Signet, World Vision and Deja Vu, with the vote going to Deja Vu. The selection catches the eye because he is the selected ride of Graham Lee from the two Howard Johnson runners. Given that he is lightly raced he might well be able to build on his Musselburgh novices' handicap hurdle win last season, even though he races now from an eight-pound higher mark. World Vision's win last time came in a novice chase but, given that he appeared to show improved form there and his stable is in good heart, he could also yet have better to come over hurdles. Despite probably preferring better going, Bodfari Signet has claims because he is five pounds above a winning mark but his rider claims five, although he has never won on going with give in it. Fairy Skin Maker comes here in good heart and even though he is seven pounds higher now than for his course and distance win in September, he can still be competitive. The likes of Ambry, Plutocrat, Edmo Yewkay, who is unproven at today's trip, Teme Valley, who is also unproven at the trip, and the lightly raced Red Man, are others that can be considered but, for today, the vote in a pretty competitive race, goes to Deja Vu.
