Nyanza won twice on the Polytrack in May and was just touched off over 1m6f at Wolverhampton on her latest start. She'll be thereabouts here if her jumping is up to scratch but we're going to stick with the experience of FENNANN, who was third at Fontwell last month. The fourth in that race won easily next time at Ludlow. Gary Moore's charge is preferred to Officer Drivel and Ravenous. Loving Your Work won over 1m4f at Newbury in June and is another to consider if taking to hurdles.
