Beechfield Flyer could be the answer in this very tricky seller where it is not worth getting too heavily involved. The Bill Clay-trained veteran is on a remarkable mark for the best of his old form and is the tentative selection. Major's Law is an interesting candidate as he has spent most of the season Hunter Chasing and this step back to hurdles may have a positive effect. Cypress Avenue is the sort of horse who can run the occasional big race and has been running some good races this season without getting his head in front. This is a weak contest and most of these have got a fighting chance. Horses like Huso, Five Flags and Come On Eilish have each way possibilities.
