WALKING IN THE AIR has started favourite in all three runs to date over hurdles but has found one too good in his last two. He probably came up against a decent novice in Hell's Kitchen at Newbury earlier this month, however, and is the one to beat again. El Bandit was only eighth on his hurdling debut at Taunton but wasn't beaten far and will know more today. Clondaw Fonz was third in his first run under Rules at Huntingdon and is another likely improver while jockey bookings would suggest Neumond is the pick of his stable's two runners ahead of Bellator. Scoresheet, Glengra and Robert's Star are interesting long-term prospects.
