Verdict
The last time LISTEN DEAR ran over hurdles she easily beat the useful Well Set Up at Limerick and she's been racing at a high level over fences. Mengli Khan has been mixing hurdling and chasing recently and his two runs at Grade 3 level put him right in the picture. Jetz hasn't run over hurdles for almost two years but still looks best of the remainder as Charli Parcs, a once promising type for Nicky Henderson, hasn't run since November 2018.
