Verdict
KABRIT, yet to tackle this trip, stays three miles well. A dual winner over fences a year ago, he's yet to oblige over hurdles but was just a head away from doing so at Worcester last time. He was at his best at this time of the season last year and can go one better. Oxwich Bay continues his return to hurdles after solid efforts over fences and has surprisingly been edged up 1lb for a 13-length defeat over timber at Ffos Las. He should prove competitive if staying this far but that's the question against the Williams gelding. Paul Nicholls reaches for a tongue tie and blinkers in an attempt to eke some improvement out of Get The Appeal and Our Three Sons looks more of a possible if staying the trip. Defi D'Oudairies is interesting on French form but has yet to reproduce that level for his new yard.
