Last seen running in the Grade 1 Challow Hurdle, COOLANLY won a Grade 2 earlier at Cheltenham and will be a warm order in this. He does carry a penalty but should still be too strong for Theatre Legend, only third when odds-on at Sedgefield, and Schiehallion Munro. The latter was also a beaten favourite last time at Sedgefield having won at that track earlier. Article Fifty takes a further step up in trip after a low-key reappearance at Exeter while even further is likely to suit winning pointer Peter's Portrait. All Hail Caesar has shown some ability in bumpers.
