This looks quite competitive as sellers go with one or two arriving in decent form. Chilbury Hill has won twice over hurdles and once over fences since the turn of the year and has been rated much higher in the past. He shouldn't be far away again but the drying ground is a bit of a worry, though he did have Nicky Nutjob back in third at Towcester in February and John O'Shea's charge has won since. Majestic Bull drops into this lowly grade for the first time but in another better suited by an easy surface, as is Saddlers Mot. KIRKHAMMERTON is better known as a chaser but can't get any lower in the weights and could pop up here at decent odds if getting the run of the race. He won't mind the going and will be picking these off on the final circuit.
