In depth
Verdict
This will be a slog and previous winners Coolsan and Putup Or Shutup certainly come into the reckoning. Cyindien has solid form at this level while Autumn Rain showed promise here in a maiden hurdle last time (Mutiny, Rockford and A Romp Too Far ran in same race and look held today). Yarmouth winner Master McGrath (on soft and when visored) has to be respected from the Martin Pipe stable. The consistent Putup Or Shutup is taken as an alternative, though, and gets the selection.
