Verdict
NOTICEABLE looks worth another chance here and he gets our vote over Kalellshan and Schindler's Gold. The selection has been placed on seven of his 14 starts so far over hurdles and he looks to have been given a good chance to regain the winning thread today. He looked the most likely winner when he fell at Southwell last month and with ground conditions to suit he can gain his compensation. Kalellshan made a winning debut over the chase fences at Tramore last month. That was a good effort and he is sure to be popular with punters in his bid to follow up. Schindler's Gold has got some fair form over hurdles and this is only his third run in this sphere. He ran well on his chasing debut but then disappointed at Limerick last time and it will interesting to see if he bounce back to form today. Folk Tune has been knocking on the door of late over hurdles and he should come on for his recent pipe-opener on the flat. He is one to note in the market on his chase bow, but Noticeable looks a safer bet and he gets the vote.
